Choosing Your Doctor Is Important

I am working away on the computer when the phone rings.  It is the Dentist's office, calling to bother me for some unknown reason.  She explains that she is entering my new patient information into her database and she is having trouble reading the name of my medical Doctor. Ok, this is something I can help her with!

"His name is Jack Kevorkian."  I tell her.

"Can you spell that" she asks.

"K-E-V-O-R-K-I-A-N."

You've listed no address, she tells me.

"No," I say, "I am not exactly sure of his whereabouts."  I say.  Ok I have lied.  I know where he is, but I can keep a secret.

"How do you go to him if you don't know where he is," she asks.

"Well, he is the kind of Doctor you only see once," I tell her.

"I don't understand," she replies.

"I know."  I say.

Mission accomplished.

One day I am going to use this when my phone rings. I get a lot of phones calls from the doctors office and sometimes I just get irritated that I am be bothered by the same redundant questions.
Funny stuff.

Oh, God, he's from Michigan! I think he's out of jail now, but he has promised not to practice his *dark arts*. I can't believe there's a medical professional (maybe that's the key) alive who hasn't heard about Dr. Kevorkian!

pop, I think Dr. Kevorkian was too extreme but generally his idea of self determination was probably righteous.
