Dr. Grumpy: "This is Dr. Grumpy, returning a page."
Ms. Simon-Bond: "Hi, Dr. Grumpy... there's a dead cat on my back patio."
Pause
Dr. Grumpy: "Why are you calling me?"
Ms. Simon-Bond: "I... I guess because I didn't know what to do about it."
Pause
Dr. Grumpy: "I didn't know you had a cat."
Ms. Simon-Bond: "I don't... I don't know whose cat it is."
Dr. Grumpy: "Okay, this really isn't something I can help you with, or even a reason to call me."
Ms. Simon-Bond: "My internist said the same thing."
Did you tell her to call Animal Control??

If a neurologist gets crazy calls like this, what must psychiatrists get?
ReplyDeleteOf course - find a dead cat on your back patio then the first person you call is your internist and the next would of course be your neurologist. Maybe she needs to call the undertaker next? - or maybe her pharmacist?
ReplyDeleteShe may need a forensic pathologist, and to stop using rat poison in the yard.
ReplyDeleteDid it bounce?
