Getting your priorities
right
A man
wakes up in hospital, bandaged from head to foot.
The doctor comes in and says "Ah, I see you've regained
consciousness.
Now you probably won't remember, but you were in a pile-up on the
motorway. Now you're going to be OK, you'll walk again, everything,
but
something happened. I'm trying to break this gently but your penis
was
chopped off in the wreck and we were unable to find it."
Now the bloke groans a bit but the doctor goes on "But it's going to
be
alright, we have the technology now to build you a new one that will
work as well as your old one did, better in fact. But the thing is,
it
doesn't come cheap. It's a thousand pounds an inch".
The bloke perks up at this, even though it's a thousand pounds an
inch.
"So the thing is" the doctor says, "it's for you to decide how many
inches you want. But it's something you'd better discuss with your
wife. I mean, if you had a five inch one before and you decide to go
for a nine
incher she might be a bit put out. But if you had a nine inch one
before
and you decide only to invest in a five incher this time she might
be
disappointed. So it's important that she plays a vital role in
helping
you make the decision."
So the bloke agrees to talk with his wife and the doctor comes back
the
next day.
"So" says the doctor "Have you spoken with your wife?"
"I have." says the fellow.
"And has she helped you in making the decision?".
"She has"
says the bloke.
"And what is it?" asks the doctor. . .
"We're having a new kitchen".
