A Joke a Day: Missverständnis!
Ich habe wieder einen netten "Joke" in meinem Abreißkalender gefunden:
A Fellow walked into a doctor's office, and the receptionist asked him what he had. He said "Shingles".
So she took down his name, address, medical insurance number and told him to have a seat. A few minutes later a nurse's aid came out and asked him what he had. He said "Shingles."
So she took down his height, weight, a complete medical history and told him to wait in the examining room. Ten minutes later a nurse came in and asked him what he had. He said "Shingles."
So she gave him a blood test, a blood-pressure test, an electro-cardiogram, told him to take off all his clothes and wait for the doctor. Fifteen minutes later the doctor came in and asked him what he had. He said "Shingles."
The doctor said, "Where?"
He said, "Outside in the truck. Where do you want them?"
Shingles bedeutet sowohl Gürtelrose als auch Schindeln!
