Vet Problems

"On The Farm"*

*A stalwart Vermont farmer bought some land that
was still just as it had been before the Pilgrims landed.

He dug up hundreds of stones and built a fence;
cut down trees to create a clearing; built a house
and a small barn; cleared land for pasture, dug a
well and over several years just generally worked
his fingers to the bone in creating a small, neat, productive farm.

Eventually his pastor came out for a visit and
marveled rather fulsomely, and at great length,
at all that "you and G~od have done together."

"Eh," the farmer said dubiously. "Ya shoulda seen
the place when G~d ran it on his own."

"Vet Problems"*

*A Veterinarian was feeling ill and went to see her
doctor. The doctor asked her all the usual questions,
about symptoms, how long had they been occurring, etc.,
when she interrupted him: "Hey look, I'm a vet - I don't
need to ask my patients these kind of questions:
I can tell what's wrong just by looking."

She smugly added, "Why can't you?"

The doctor nodded, stood back, looked her up and
down, quickly wrote out a prescription, handed it
to her and said, "There you are. Of course, if that
doesn't work, we'll have to have you put to sleep."
