OK, YOU ASKED FOR IT, SKEPTICAL, BFLY, BOBO, SCOOBY, BANGBANG, SO HERE IT IS:

Did you hear about the veterinarian who was barred from performing any surgery because he suffered from bouts of epilepsy?

The cops busted him for attempting to operate on a sick predatory bird but the case was thrown out on a technicality.

It was an ill eagle surgeon seizure.

Dr. Murray Banks, the psychiatrist who wrote "What to do until the psychiatrist arrives," said that it is medically impossible to get an ulcer when you are laughing! In one group I attended, we all lay down on the floor and put our heads on the belly of the person next to us...and, know what, everybody started laughing and without abandon!
Diagosed with bipolar in 1985, I'm learning to deal with it better since finding my "family" at Alcoholics Anonymous, and as of 1/3/2013, I will have one year of sobriety and more clarity than I've ever experienced in my lifetime.

When I was in court reporting school, one person was asked the definition of "illegal."

To which Susan responded, "Why, a sick bird, of course!"

Did you hear about the teacher who put two glasses on his desk, filled one with pure alcohol and the other with water, then he put worms in both glasses. He looked to the class and said, "Now, what did this prove?"

A hand shot up in the back of the room and said, "Gee, teacher, I guess if I drink I won't get worms, will I?"

A hunter kills a deer and brings it home. He decides to clean and serve the venison for supper. He knows his kids are fussy eaters, and won't eat it if they know what it is - so he does not tell them. His little boy keeps asking him, "What's for supper?" "You'll see", says his dad. They start eating supper and his daughter keeps asking what they're eating. "Ok," says her dad, "here's a hint, its what your mother sometimes calls me." "We're eating asshole!!", she screams
