One day Bill
complained to his friend, "My elbow
really hurts, I guess I should see a
doctor." His friend offered, "Don't do
that. There's a computer at the drug
store that can diagnose anything quicker
an cheaper than a doctor." "Simply put
in a sample of your urine and the
computer will diagnose your problem and
tell you what you can do about it. It
only costs $10." Bill figured he had
nothing to lose, so he filled a jar with
a urine sample and went to the drug
store. Finding the computer, he poured
in the sample and deposited the $10. The
computer started making some noise and
various lights started flashing. After a
brief pause out popped a small slip of
paper on which was printed:
You have tennis elbow.
Soak your arm in warm water.
Avoid heavy lifting.
It will be better in two weeks.
Late that evening while thinking how
amazing this new technology was and how
it would change medical science forever,
he began to wonder if this machine could
be fooled. He decided to give it a try.
He mixed together some tap water, a
stool sample from his dog and urine
samples from his wife and daughter. To
top it off, he masturbated into the
concoction. He went back to the drug
store, located the machine, poured in
the sample and deposited the $10. The
computer again made the usual noise and
printed out the following message:
Your tap water is too hard.
Get a water softener.
Your dog has worms.
Get him vitamins.
Your daughter is using cocaine.
Put her in a rehabilitation clinic.
Your wife is pregnant with twin girls.
They aren't yours.
Get a lawyer.
And if you don't stop jerking off, your
tennis elbow will never get better.
