These fora are depressingly serious. Can we lighten up a bit? Well, I will start:
Found this @ www.ultimate-deal.com (under humor). Thought it was hilarious:
Let's have more.

What doctors Say/What they mean:
*"This should be taken care of right away."
(I'd planned a trip to Hawaii next month but this is so easy and
profitable that I want to fix it before it cures itself.)
* "Welllllll, what have we here...?"
(He has no idea and is hoping you'll give him a clue.)
* "Let me check your medical history."
(I want to see if you've paid your last bill before spending any more time with you.)
* "We have some good news and some bad news."
(The good news is, I'm going to buy that new BMW. The bad news is, you're going to pay for it.)
* "Let's see how it develops."
(Maybe in a few days it will grow into something that can be cured.)
* "Let me schedule you for some tests."
(I have a forty-percent interest in the lab.)
* "I'd like to have my associate look at you."
(He's going through a messy divorce and owes me a bundle.)
* "I'd like to prescribe a new drug."
(I'm writing a paper and would like to use you for a guinea pig.)
* "If it doesn't clear up in a week, give me a call."
(I don't know what it is. Maybe it will go away by itself.)
* "That's quite a nasty looking wound."
(I think I'm going to throw up.)
* "This may smart a little."
(Last week two patients bit off their tongues.)
