Out Of Ammo
(or
“Assault
With A Dead Battery”)
An 80-year old man
was having his annual checkup and the Doctor asked him how he was feeling.
“I've never
been better!” he
boasted.
“I've got an
eighteen year old bride who's pregnant and having my child! What do you think
about that?”
The Doctor considered
this for a moment, then said,
“Let me tell
you a story. I knew a guy who was an avid hunter. He never missed a season. But
one day, he went out in a bit of a hurry, and he accidentally grabbed his
umbrella instead of his gun.”
The Doctor continued,
“So
he was in the woods, and suddenly a grizzly bear appeared in front of him! He raised up
his umbrella, pointed it at the bear and squeezed the handle. And do you know what
happened?” the Doctor queried.
Dumbfounded, the old man replied,
“No.”
The Doctor continued,
“The bear
dropped dead in front of him!”
“That's
impossible!” exclaimed
the old man.
“Someone
else must have shot that bear.”
“That's
kind of what I'm getting at,”
replied the Doctor.
