Doctor says I've got good news and I've got bad news. Patient says give me the bad news first. "We have to amputate your foot." "What's the good news?"
"That guy over there wants to buy your shoe."

Which reminds me- I heard a song a couple of years ago. Kind of madrigal-y take on the "I cried because I had no shoes till a met a man who had no feet" thing. A very funny piece. Anybody know this one?

Peace, Bardford
