Broken Ribs

"Waiting for a Table"

A waitress became violently ill while at work and was
rushed by ambulance to the emergency room. In typical
hospital fashion, she was placed on an examining table
and then all but ignored for the next half-hour.

Finally, she noticed a doctor out in the hall and yelled,
"Please help me!"

"Sorry," he replied, "it's not my table."

"Broken Ribs"

For the second time in six weeks a man had
fallen off his horse and broken some ribs.
Coincidentally, the doctor in the emergency
room at the hospital was the same both times.

Since there isn't much that can be done for
broken ribs, he prescribed a pain killer and
sent the man on his way.

As the man turned to leave, he jokingly
asked, "Is there anything you can recommend
for my horse?"

The doctor paused and thought for a moment,
then said, "If it were me, I'd get another rider."
