Looking For a Brain

Having a CT Scan in a couple of days Most likely looking for a brain Hope they find something that resembles such Not finding one might be a strain Might think the Scanner is no longer working Nothing's showing up on the screen Came up with an idea for having some fun Pulled the plug and heard someone scream “Look at this, this man's missing a brain” Never in the annuls of medicine Have they come across this rare phenomenon His head's filled with stuff like gelatin Literally ten doctors were quickly summoned All looked astonished and took notes Chuckled to myself at the fuss I'd created TV stations were looking for quotes! Finally had to tell them of my fun little gig But most didn't find it too funny Told me, “Lie down and no more shenanigans Or the nurse will call your mummy!"

Perfect, Jack! Way to go. What a brilliant prank. In general, doctors have zero sense of humor. Medicine these days! Fugettaboutit!

Hilarious, Jack! You have a great sense of humor! I had a brain MRI once. I joked about it showing I had one. Blessings, Kim M
