There Was A Pediatrician--who Shall Remain Nameless--who

HomeShort JokesMedical

There was a pediatrician--who shall remain nameless--who, though he was a
good doctor, was heartily disliked by all his young patients because in an
effort to entertain them he performed boring magic tricks.

One day, a sharp kid got an idea for getting rid of the jerk. As Dr. X
was doing his tricks, the kid said, "If you're such a good magician, let's
see you turn yourself into an apple." The doctor complied, and quick as
a wink, the brat took & shoved the apple into a box & taped the lid shut.
The children were jubilant because they figured they had him out of their
way.

Then someone had a troubling thought. "How do we know he's still really
in there?" he asked. "That's easy," said the kid, "Just weigh the box.
If it weighs less, it means he's escaped." So that was what they did.

The moral of this story? A weigh a day keeps the doctor an apple.
