>> Dr. Leroy, the head psychiatrist at the local mental hospital, is
>> examining patients to see if they're cured and ready to re-enter
>> society.
>>
>> "So, Mr. Clark," the doctor says to one of his patients, "I see by your
>> chart that you've been recommended for dismissal. Do you have any idea
>> what you might do once you're released?"
>>
>> The patient thinks for a moment, then replies, "Well, I went to school
>> for mechanical engineering. That's still a good field, good money there.
>>
>> But on the other hand, I thought I might write a book about my
>> experience here in the hospital, what it's like to be a patient here.
>> People might be interested in reading a book like that. In addition, I
>> thought I might go back to college and study art history, which I've
>> grown interested in lately."
>>
>> Dr. Leroy nods and says, "Yes, those all sound like intriguing
>> possibilities."

>> The patient replies, "And the best part is, in my spare time, I can go
>> on being a teapot.

>> Paul got off the elevator on the 40th floor and nervously knocked on
>> his blind date's door. She opened it and was as beautiful and charming
>> as everyone had said.
>>
>> "I'll be ready in a few minutes," she said. "Why don't you play with
>> Rollo while you're waiting?" He does wonderful tricks. He rolls over,
>> shakes hands, sits up and if you make a hoop with your arms, he'll jump
>> through."
>>
>> The dog followed Paul onto the balcony and started rolling over. Paul
>> made a hoop with his arms and Rollo jumped through -- and over the
>> balcony railing. Just then Paul's date walked out.
>>
>> "Isn't Rollo the cutest, happiest dog you've ever seen?"
>>
>> "To tell the the truth, " he replied, "he seemed a little depressed to
>> me."
