THE DECISION
A man wakes up in the hospital, bandaged from head to foot.
The doctor comes in and says, "Ah, I see you've regained
consciousness. Now,you probably won't remember, but you were in a pileup
on the freeway. You're going to be okay, you'll walk again and
everything, but.....Something happened. I'm trying to break this gently,
but the fact is,your willy was chopped off in the wreck, and we were
unable to find it."
The man groans, but the doctor goes on, "You've got $9000 in
insurance compensation coming to you, and we have the technology now to
build you a new willy that will work as well as your old one did -
better in fact! But the thing is, it doesn't come cheap. It's $1000 an
inch."
The man perks up at this.
"So," the doctor says, "it's for you to decide how many inches
you want. But it's something you'd better discuss with your wife. I
mean, if you had a five inch one before, and you decide to go for a nine
incher, she might be a bit put out. But if you had a nine inch one
before, and you decide only to invest in a five incher this time, she
might be disappointed. So it's important that she plays a role in
helping you make the decision."
The man agrees to talk with his wife. The doctor
comes back the next day.
"So," says the doctor, "have you spoken with your wife?"
"I have," says the man.
"And has she helped you in making the decision?"
"She has," says the man.
"And what is it?" asks the doctor.
"We're getting a new kitchen."
