Ever hear the story about the doctor who called a plumber to make a
house call?

Plumber arrived, spent about 10 minutes, made a modest repair, then
handed the doctor his bill for $150.

Doctor complained, "I'm a doctor and only charge $100 for a house
call".

Plumber answered, I know, that's why I quit being a doctor and became
a plumber".

Touche'....(c;

I've never figured out why lawyers are more important to humans than the
technicians that keep it all running and make our lives bearable.

Case in point: The next time your head is stopped up, call a lawyer.

How stupid humans are....

Witch doctors have always had a paramount place in society. Who else
will propagate the evil spirits -- the plumbers?

You go to the doctor and say, "I can't crap", and the doctor gives you
some little white pills. If you talk a little more he'll give you a
prescription for three days bed rest so you can claim your sick leave.
You call a plumber and say "I can't crap" and he says, "I can, maybe,
make it by next Wednesday".
