A laugh a day keeps the psychiatrist away

Cliff Thomas

One of my very favorite pharmacists is my friend, Roxie. She has a twinkle in her eye and always has a story to tell.

Roxie's pharmacy is just across the street from a busy medical center. Last week, I stopped in to see her.

Roxie said, "You'll never believe what happened across the street at the medical center last week. Dr. Bingham, a busy internist, was examining a patient when his nurse rushed in and said 'Doctor, the man you just gave a clean bill of health walked out of the office and dropped dead. What should I do?'"

"The doctor said, 'Turn him around so it looks like he just walked in.'"
