I’m already here

It was a stifling hot day and a man fainted in the middle of a busy
intersection. Traffic quickly piled up in all directions, and a woman rushed to
help him. When she knelt down to loosen his collar, a man emerged from the
crowd, pushed her aside, and said, “It’s all right honey, I’ve had a course in
first aid.” The woman stood up and watched as he took the ill man’s pulse and
prepared to administer artificial respiration. At this point she tapped him on
the shoulder and said, “When you get to the part about calling a doctor, I’m
already here.”

Lose 20 Lbs. Guaranteed!

There guy goes to a weight loss clinic and says he needs to lose 20 lbs. The
receptionist sends him upstairs, where he finds a beautiful naked woman with a
sign that says “If you catch me, you can screw me.” An hour later, he emerges,
sated and 20 lbs. lighter.
A month later, he returns and needs to lose 50 lbs. The receptionist sends him
upstairs again, but this time there are two girls with the same sign. A day
later, he comes out 50 lbs. lighter.
A year later, he returns and needs to lose 100 lbs. He gets sent upstairs
again, where he finds a huge gorilla with a sign that reads “If I catch you, I
screw you.”

The 3 shrinks!

While attending a convention, three psychiatrists take a walk.

“People are always coming to us with their guilt and fears,” one says, “but we have no one to go to with our own problems.”

“Since we’re all professionals,” another suggests, “why don’t we hear each other out right now?”
They agreed this is a good idea. The first psychiatrist confesses, “I’m a compulsive shopper and deeply in debt, so I usually overbill my patients as often as I can.”

The second admits, “I have a drug problem that’s out of control, and I frequently pressure my patients into buying illegal drugs for me.”

The third psychiatrist says, “I know it’s wrong, but no matter how hard I try, I just can’t keep a secret.”

A Dose of HMO’s Own Medicine

A doctor, a nurse, and the top executive of an HMO have all died and are in
line together at the Pearly Gates. St. Peter speaks with them and asks what good
each has done in their life.
Doctor: ”I have devoted my life to the sick and needy and have had a part in
caring for, and healing thousands of poor people.”
St. Peter: ”That’s great. Go ahead in to heaven. And what about you, dear?”

Nurse: ”I’ve supported the good doctor and his patients my entire life as an
adult.”
St. Peter: ”Wonderful. Please proceed in with the doctor. And what about
you?”
Health Maintenance Organization Director: ”I was the president of a very
large HMO and was responsible for the healthcare of millions of people all over
the country.”
St. Peter: ”Oh, I see. Please go in…But you can only stay two nights!”
