Old jokes re-visited
Posted: Wed Jun 28, 2017 8:10 am
The old philosopher once said that if you leave an "old joke" alone long enough then resurrect it that some people will actually think it is "new". Such is the case with the following account.
Anyway, these Afghan surgeons were having a conference in Kabul, Afghanistan, the capital city. Since it had been several years since they last convened, they were very busy describing various surgeries they had perfected since their last get-together.
The first doctor chimed in: Well, 2 summers ago I found this guy who had been run over by a train, both of his legs were severed. So I threw the whole mess into the back of my pickup and sped to the hospital. There I stitched both legs back on. He not only healed completely, but he went on to become a star running back in the NFL.
The 2nd doctor chimed in: Oh that's nothing. Several years ago I saw this old man with a long beard galloping his horse at top speed across the desert, his turban and robes furling in the breeze. All of a sudden there was this tremendous explosion. When the dust cleared, all I could find were the old man's beard and the hind end of the horse. I stitched those 2 things together and the result went on to become Osama Bin Ladin!
Conclusion? There are more horse's hind ends in the world than there are horses.
Silly, silly. Was it really that funny? I don't think so.
have a good day
