Flash in the Pan
13 March 2014
(Palindrome -
"I madam, I made radio! So I dared! Am I mad, am I?")
"Is he
alright, doctor? Is he?"
It was difficult
to see how the poor man could be, what with the four iron wrapped around his
head.
"I'm going
to have to run a few tests, madam. Just when exactly did this happen?"
"After the
swearing, before the ban," said the distressed wife.
"No, no, at
what time did this happen?" The doctor shined a light into the patient's
eyes.
"Oh, sorry,
doctor, about three hours ago," stated the women, matter-of-factly.
"Three
hours! Why the hell did it take you this long to get him here?" complained
the doctor.
"Well, I
didn't really notice..."
"Notice?
He's wearing a golf club for a hat and you didn't notice?"
"Well, I
noticed that, but..." She was interrupted by her inflicted husband.
"I
madam, I made radio! So I dared! Am I mad, am I?"
"See? He never made much sense before but now…"
apologized the wife.
"Ah-ha. He has 'palindromitus', a common misfortune on
the golf course." The doctor stopped his examination and sat there
thinking.
"So, doctor?
What's your diagnosis?"
"I'll write
up a prescription." He wrote down the usual commission based medicine and
scribbled his signature down at the bottom of the paper.
"So, doctor,
looks like my husband won't be playing golf for a while. Fancy a set of clubs,
without the four iron, of course?" asked the wife.
"Golf? God! Yawn! Mad on Eve! No damn way! Dog flog!"
"Golf? God! Yawn! Mad on Eve! No damn way! Dog flog!"
