Premium Member Sunday Funnies I

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

Verliebt In Einen Traum

Ich bin verliebt in einen Traum,
Einen Traum der Zukinft,
Er begeistert mich mit  Freundschaft und Liebe Gottes,
Liebliche Berge dann will ich mit ihn wandern,
Lieder dann will ich mit ihn singen,
Ein Lehrer der Humanitat, dann will ich in seiner Klasse sein,
Wie sagt mann guten morgen zu einen Prince,
Wasser der Seele reinigen mit der Sonnenlicht,
Er ist mein Traum gottes,
ich bette das unser lieber Gott Ihn sicher halt,
Ein froehliches Wieder sehn,
Riesige Berge sein Heim,
Das Chalet wo er sich mit Freunden trifft,
Ein Lebewohl, lieber Prince, ich habe dich gern.

I laughed so hard, I would almost gag
while I listened to your ditty “The Vatican Rag”.
Why was a Harvard PhD mathematician
performing on stage as a musician?
You tickled the ivories on your piano
while you let your humorous lyrics flow.
With your witty comments, you put on a show.
You were a master at sociological satire
until the day you would retire.
