"Well," said the Director, "we fill up a bathtub, then we offer a teaspoon, a teacup and a bucket to the patient and ask him or her to empty the bathtub."

"Oh, I understand," said the visitor. "A normal person would use the bucket because it's bigger than the spoon or the teacup."

"No." said the Director, "A normal person would pull the plug. Would you like a bed near the window?"


:D


DID YOU PASS, OR DO YOU WANT THE BED NEXT TO MINE?

looking up.
A blonde walks by and asked them what they were
doing.
Paddy replied, "We're supposed to be finding
the bloody height of this flagpole, but we don't have
a bloody ladder."
The blonde took out an adjustable spanner from her bag,
loosened a few bolts and laid the flagpole down.

She got a tape measure out of her pocket, took a few
measurements, and announced that it was 18 feet 6
inches.
Then, she walked off.

Mick said to Paddy, "Isn't that just like a blonde! We
need the bloody height and she gives us the bloody length."

642758 2008-02-23 01:44:00 Personally, I'd jump up in down in the tub until it all overflows, then whats left I'd start drinking.

Do I pass? For using my head (or mouth) that is.

Or you could just use Pythagoras to measure the height of the pole.

642760 2008-02-23 02:12:00 Many years ago, the place i lived at had a galvanised bath tub in a lean to, next to the house. The tub had no plug hole, so when you had to empty it you simply tipped it over. True story ! ! BobM (1138)

With the state of our (mental) health system, if you could just give a meaningful answer (doesn't matter what), they would not admit you .

Our mental health system is in excellent hands ! We have very competent and hugely dedicated people looking after mental health. I regret to say dolby digital, with the utmost degree of respect, that you are very misinformed.
