About this ebook

Laughter can stimulate many organs. Laughter improves the intake of oxygen-rich air, stimulates your heart, lungs and muscles and increases the endorphins that are released by your brain. Laughter can also stimulate circulation and aid muscle relaxation, both of which help to reduce some of the physical symptoms of stress. Laughter may ease pain by causing the body to produce its own natural painkillers. Laughter may also break the pain-spasm cycle common to some muscle disorders and Increase personal satisfaction.

    The third surgeon said, ‘I prefer to operate on electricians. Their organs are colour-coded.’

    Once I was sick and I had to go to an ear, nose, and throat man to get well. There are ear doctors, nose doctors, throat doctors, gynaecologists, proctologists, any place you got a hole, there’s a guy who specializes in your hole. They make an entire career out of that hole. And if the ear doctor, nose doctor, throat doctor, gynaecologist, or proctologist can’t help you, he sends you to a surgeon. Why? So he can make a new hole!

    A young woman was in the hospital, recovering from major surgery. She hated being stuck in the tiny little room all day and to make matters worse, the daily routine was starting to get to her. Every morning, for example, the nurse would bring her breakfast (which always consisted of an egg, piece of toast, and glass of apple juice). She would then return a little bit later to empty the urine bottle. And so it continued...

    Finally, one morning, she decided to have a little fun. She ate the eggs and the toast, but went to the bathroom where she cleaned the urine bottle out, then poured the apple juice into it. When the nurse returned later that morning, he took a look at the bottle and a frown came over his face.

    ‘Obviously, you enjoyed your breakfast, but something must be wrong because this looks a little cloudy,’ he said, pointing to the urine bottle.

    ‘Oh, really?’ she replied, picking up the bottle in question and putting it to her lips. ‘In that case, we’d better run it through again...’

    When my wife went in the hospital for surgery several years ago, a rule prohibited children under 12 from visiting patients. Our 11-year-old seemed to understand, but our six-year-old took the restriction very hard.

    We discovered why she was so unusually upset when we heard her talking to her mother on the phone for the first time. As she said good-bye, she tearfully exclaimed, ‘I’ll see you when I’m 12, mom!’

    An artist asked the gallery owner if anyone had shown interest in his paintings. ‘I’ve got good news and bad news,’ she said. ‘The good news is that some guy inquired if it would appreciate in value after you died. When I told him it would, he bought all 15 of your paintings.’

    ‘And the bad news?’

    ‘The guy was your doctor.’

    Three doctors were on their way to a convention when their car had a flat. They got out and examined the tire. The first doctor said, ‘I think it’s flat.’

    The second doctor examined it closely and said, ‘It sure looks flat.’

    The third doctor felt the tire and said, ‘It feels like its flat.’

    All three nodded their heads in agreement. ‘We’d better run some tests.’

    The old family physician being away on vacation, entrusted his practice to his son—a recent medical student. When the old man returned, the youngster told him among other things, that he cured Miss Ferguson, an aged and wealthy spinster, of her chronic indigestion.

    Psychiatrist to his nurse: ‘Just say we’re very busy. Don’t keep saying ‘It’s a madhouse.’’

    A pipe burst in a doctor’s house. He called a plumber. The plumber arrived, unpacked his tools, did mysterious plumber-type things for a while, and handed the doctor a bill for Rs.600.

    The doctor exclaimed, ‘This is ridiculous! I don’t even make that much as a doctor!’

    The plumber waited for him to finish and quietly said, ‘Neither did I when I was a doctor.’

    A man is talking to the family doctor. ‘Doctor, I think my wife’s going deaf.’

    The doctor answers, ‘Well, here’s something you can try on her to test her hearing. Stand some distance away from her and ask her a question. If she doesn’t answer, move a little closer and ask again. Keep repeating this until she answers. Then you’ll be able to tell just how hard of hearing she really is.’

    The man goes home and tries it out. He walks in the door and says, ‘Honey, what’s for dinner?’ He doesn’t hear an answer, so he moves closer to her. ‘Honey, what’s for dinner?’ Still no answer. He repeats this several times, until he’s standing just a few feet away from her.

    Finally, she answers, ‘For the eleventh time, I said we’re having chicken!’

    I was sitting in the waiting room of the hospital after my wife had gone into labour and the nurse walked out and said to the man sitting next to me, ‘Congratulations sir, you’re the new father of twins!’

    The man replied, ‘How about that, I work for the Double mint Chewing Gum Company.’ The man then followed the woman to his wife’s room.

    About an hour later, the same nurse entered the waiting room and announced that Mr. Smith’s wife has just had triplets.

    Mr. Smith stood up and said, ‘Well, how do you like that, I work for the 3M Company.’

    The gentleman that was sitting next to me then got up and started to leave. When I asked him why he was leaving, he remarked, ‘I think I need a breath of fresh air.’ The man continued, ‘I work for 7-UP.’

    A man walked into a psychiatrist’s office, sat down, took out a pack of cigarettes. He removed a cigarette from the pack, unrolled it, and stuffed the tobacco up his nose.
