Good Diagnosis
Akmed came to
the United States from Afghanistan, and he was only here a few months when he became very
ill. He went to doctor after doctor, but none of them could help him. Finally, he went to
an Arab doctor. The doctor said, "Take dees bucket, go into de odder room, poop in de
bucket, pee on de poop, and den put your head down over de bucket and breathe in de fumes
for ten minutes."
Akmed took the bucket, went into the other room, pooped in the bucket, peed on the poop,
bent over and breathed in the fumes for ten minutes.
Coming back to the doctor he said, "It worked. I feel terrific! What was
it?"
The doctor said, "You were homesick."
