Monoku Series: General Hospital i had a brain mri last month as expected, they found nothing i asked could i do my own anesthetic doc said, "knock yourself out" last week i went to urgent care it felt neither urgent nor caring they had a specialist: her specialty is diseases of the rich she longs to open up her own clinic but doesn't have the patients my doc's advice: if you're skinny, don't eat fast if you're not, don't eat... fast! isn't it a bit unnerving that doctors call what they do, "practice"? overseen on a patient's chart: no fever or chills but spouse claims she was very hot in bed last night Humor Attribution: #3 - Edmo Snord, #4 - Tom Lehrer, #7 - George Carlin, all others found online and converted to monoku form by yours truly. Enjoy your Sunday, everybody!

I enjoyed the sharing of this humor. I needed a few chuckles today. Thanks for your visit to my blog. Our son still has some paralysis, numbness, and somewhat depressed as I probably would be in his condition. Sara

A great laugh to end off my Sunday dear friend - HUMOR - how much we need to laugh in life. I read an article that someone who was diagnosed with cancer went out every day to buy a bunch of funny movies, before Netflix and Show max days, and laughed his cancer away, true or false he was brave enough to face doing this. However, my favorite is......They had a specialist, her speciality is diseases of the rich. Hope you are well my friend, Hugs and blessings Jennifer

As they say, laughter is the best medicine. I love the movie rental idea. You, my friend, have brought much humour to this site - we should call you Dr. Jenn. (Reminds me of your fun poem, God's Waiting Room). Have a great week! Blessings and hugs ~ John

Thanks for letting me know, Michelle. I've certainly had my share of doctor and hospital visits that were anything but funny, but sometimes you just have to look for the humor in it all.
