Powerful Pills

"Powerful Pills" *

*"Doc, you've gotta help me! My wife just isn't interested
in sex anymore. Haven't you got a pill or something I can give her?"

"Look, I can't prescribe..."

"Doc, we've been friends for years. Have you ever seen
me this upset? I'm desperate! I can't think; I can't
concentrate; my life is going utterly to hell! You've got to help me."

The doctor opens his desk drawer and removes a small
bottle of pills. "Ordinarily, I wouldn't do this. These are
experimental; the tests so far indicate that they're VERY
powerful. Don't give her more than ONE, understand? Just ONE."

"I don't know, doc; she's awfully cold..."

"One. No more. In her coffee. Okay?"

"Um... okay."

He thanks the doc and heads for home where his wife
has dinner waiting. When dinner is finished, she goes to
the kitchen to bring dessert. In fumbling haste, pulls the
pills from his pocket and drops one into his wife's coffee.
He thinks for a moment, hesitates, then drops in a second pill.
And then he begins to worry. The doctor did say they were powerful.

Then an inspiration strikes... he drops one pill into his own
coffee. His wife returns and they enjoy their dessert and
coffee. Sure enough, a few minutes after they finish, his
wife shudders a little, sighs deeply and heavily, and a
strange look enters her eyes. In a near-whisper and in a
tone of voice he has never heard her use before, she says,
"I need a man..."

His eyes glitter, and his hands tremble as he replies, "Yeah.. Me too.."
