Doctor's Visit

> During a visit to my doctor, I asked him,
> "How do you determine whether or not a
> retiree should be put in an old age
> home?"
>
>
> "Well," he said, "we fill
> up a bathtub,
> then we offer a teaspoon, a teacup
> and a bucket to the retiree
> and ask him or her to empty the
> bathtub"
>
>
> "Oh, I understand," I
> said.
> "A normal person would use the
> bucket
> because it is bigger than the spoon
> or the teacup."
>
>
> "No" he said.
> "A normal person would pull the
> plug.
>
> Do you want a bed near the
> window?"
