A Pakistani US citizen goes to the doctor because he just simply doesn't feel good. He's tired, his stomach is upset, he has a headache. Just feels terrible.The doctor checks him over and can't find any medical reason for him to feel the way he does.
He offers a Naturotherepy approach that he
has seen work before.
The Pakistani man is stunned, through, that
the treatment means he
has to go home, shit and piss into a plastic bag
and leave it in his basement
for a week.
"Trust me," the doctor says, "I have seen
this work."
The man goes home and follows through on
the
instructions. Within
a day, though his house smells terrible and by
the end of the week, it is an overwhelming
stench.
His eyes water every time he walks in the
door, but he feels no better. He
calls to yell at the doctor who calmly says,
"Go down and take three big deep breaths
directly from the bag and you will
be cured."
"You're crazy!" comes the reply. "Trust me."
says the doctor.Down he goes into the
basement and he takes the
first breath.Gagging and choking, he does
it again. Then, on the third breath, he
feels the headache leave.
His stomach settles and he feels amazingly
well.The stench is even tolerable. He calls the doctor to
tell him the good
news. "I
told you I've seen this work with people from Pakistan
before, "says the doctor. "You were just homesick!"
Two men met at a bar and struck up
a conversation. After a while one of
them said,
"You think you have family problems?
Listen to my
situation:
A few years ago I met a young widow with
a grown-up daughter and we got
married. Lately,
my father married my stepdaughter.
That made my stepdaughter my stepmother and
my father became my stepson. Also
my wife became mother-in-law of her
father-in-law. Then
the daughter of my wife, my stepmother had a son.
This boy was my half brother because he was my
father's son, but he was also
the son of my wife's daughter which made him
my wife's grandson. That
made me grandfather of my half-brother. This
was nothing until my wife and I had a son. Now
the sister of my son, my mother-in-law is also
the grandmother. This
makes my father the brother-in-law of my child,
whose stepsister is my father's wife.
I am my stepmother's brother-in-law, my wife
is her own child's aunt, my son
is my father's nephew and I am my own grandfather
and you think you have family
problems."
Rabbit and Snake
The newly-hatched snake and the newly-born
rabbit came face to face. Both
were so young their eyes had not yet opened.
Neither knew what the other was,
so they decided to feel each other and make a guess.
First the snake slithered over the rabbit
and then concluded: "You have warm
fur, whiskers, long ears and you hop around.
You
must be a bunny."
Then the rabbit ran its paws over the snake.
"You are slippery, you crawl on
the ground, and venomous. You
must be a Pakistani."
Linda and Marion were comparing notes
on the difficulties of running a
small business. "I
started a new practice last year, Linda said. I
insist that each of my employees take
at least a week off every three months.
Why in the world would you do that? Marion
asked. Its the best way I know of to
learn which ones I
can do without, Linda said.
