A young man had completed medical school. He went back home to the small town to work with his father. They went out the first day to make house calls. As they went in the first house the father said now you watch me so you will know what to do.

Inside, a woman was in the bed and she looked terrible. The old doctor checked her out. He was making notes when he dropped his pen to the floor. He picked it up and told the woman she need to quit cleaning and working so hard in her house, she just needed rest.

When they got outside, the son asked how he knew that she was cleaning too much. The old doctor said that when he dropped his pen, the floor was so clean that there wasn't a speck of dust anywhere.

When they arrived at the next house, the father told his son that it was his turn to examine the patient. At this house too, the woman was in bed, looking terrible. The young doctor took her blood pressure and pulse, asked a few questions, and made some notes. Then he dropped his pen and reached down to pick it up. He told the woman that she was doing too much church work, and needed to cut down on what she did.

When the two doctors went outside, the old doctor asked the young one how he knew that she was doing too much church work.

The young one said, "Well, when I bent down to pick up my pen, I saw the preacher under the bed."

A lady went to the doctor and complained that her husband was losing interest in sex. The doctor gave her a pill, but warned her that it was still experimental. He told her to put it in her husband's mashed potatoes at dinner, and so she did just that.

A week later, she returned to the doctor's office and said, "That pill worked great. I put it in my husband's mashed potatoes, just like you said. Not even five minutes later, and he jumped up, shoved all the food and dishes off the table, grabbed me, ripped all my clothes off and ravaged me right there on the table!"

The doctor said, "I'm sorry, we didn't realize that the pill was that strong. The company will be glad to pay for any damages."

The lady replied, "No. That's alright. We aren't going back to Sizzler's anyway."

Some of the guys got together to play poker one Friday night. After a few hours of playing, Doug had severe chest pains and he suddenly slumped over. One of the players, who happened to be a doctor, examined him. To everyone's surprise and shock, Doug had died of a heart attack.

None of his friends knew just how to break the news to Doug's wife. Finally Harry said, "I think that I can be diplomatic about it, and break the news to her gently."

Harry rang the door bell at Doug's house. When Doug's wife answered the door, Harry said to her, "Doug just gambled with us and lost $2,000."

When Doug's wife heard this she said, "Tell Doug to just drop dead!"

Harry replied, "That's exactly what he did."

One afternoon, a man went to his doctor and told him that he hasn't been feeling well lately. The doctor examined the man, left the room, and came back with three different bottles of pills.

The doctor said, "Take the white pill with a large glass of water when you wake up. Take the brown pill with a large glass of water after you eat lunch. Then just before going to bed, take the blue pill with another big glass of water."

Startled to be put on so much medicine, the man stammered, "But Doctor, exactly what is my problem?"

The doctor replied, "You're not drinking enough water."
