The Bad Check
One day a middle aged woman telephoned her doctor.
“Doctor,” she said, “Im having a lot of trouble with my shoulder. It hurts all the time and I cant sleep at night.”
“Come in this afternoon.” said the doctor, “and Ill have a look at it.”
That afternoon the woman went to the doctors office. He gave her a very thorough examination, asked a lot of questions, and listened carefully to her answers.
“Well, my dear,” he said, “It looks like you have arthritis.”
“Arthritis?” she said. “Oh, no! What am I going to do?”
“Dont worry,” he answered, “Ill give you a prescription and the pain will go away.”Then the doctor took out his pen, wrote a prescription, and handed her his bill for fifty dollars. The woman opened her pocketbook, wrote out a fifty dollar check, said goodbye, and left.
The doctor mailed the check to his bank, but a week later he was surprised to find that the check was returned to him, marked “Insufficient Funds”. He telephoned the woman immediately. “Im very sorry to have to tell you this.” he began, “but your check came back this week.” “Oh, really?”said the woman,“ Thats quite a coincidence.”
“What do you mean?” asked the doctor.
“Well, ”said the woman, “so did my arthritis.”
Youre Right
Once Mr Henry went to a small town with high mountains all around it. It was a quiet and cool place and some rich people liked to go there for their holidays. A week later, before Mr Henry left the town, he paid thirty pounds for a parrot. When he came back, he began to teach the bird to speak. He tried his best, but it learned only one sentence,“Youre right.”He was disappointed and said to the bird angrily,“How foolish you are!”
“Youre right,”said the parrot.
The next day Mr Henry took the bird to the market and wanted to sell it for eighty pounds. Before long a fat man came and looked at the parrot carefully. Then he asked,“How much is it, sir?”
Mr Henry didnt hurry to answer and said,“Its a clever bird, you know. It can speak and sing.”Then he said to the bird, “Are you really worth eighty pounds, my dear?
“Youre right,”said the parrot.
The fat man liked it at once and bought it. When he took it home he asked it a lot of questions, but it could only say,“You are right.”
He felt very sorry for it and said to himself angrily,“Why did I spend eighty pounds on such a
foolish bird? What a fool I am!
“Youre right, answered the parrot.
Hearing this, the man couldnt help laughing and set it free.
