  1. There really ARE some great ones here. My most favorite has to be the bottom one (12/3/60): “Now read it back to me.” I don’t think the doctor can, no. Then there’s the 5th one down about fear of getting the bill. If I were writing that one today, I’d have to add “Are you still in my network of doctors or not? God knows I’m forced to ask.”

    Then finally there’s number 6 down: “People find me boring.” At least the doctor was taking notes before he fell asleep and dropped the pen. (Fortunately it wasn’t a cigar or cigarette.)
