I was talking to a friend of mine the other day. His name
is Tim Brandt. He's a doctor of internal medicine. I said,
Hey Tim, you got anything for my sinuses?" He said, "yeah,
try actifed. That's what I use. You got anything for my
busted answering machine?" We trade stuff now and then.

Seems that Tim doesn't like being reminded that he's a doctor
when he's not in his office and on duty. He'd like to turn it
off now and then so he can enjoy a hobby or something. I just
call him Tim because that's his name. If I were to go down to 
his place of business and call out DOCTOR!, about four heads
would pop up(8-). And only one of 'em would know who the hell
I am...

Tim's got a lot of Italian blood in him, so certain of his
remarks and such don't surprize me. I walked in and found
George waiting in Tim's office one day. Me, "Hi George, what's
goin' on?" George, "I'm waiting for Tim to get off so we can
go get something to eat." Me, "WOW! Time sure flies. Supper
time already. Where's the day go?" Tim, "I'm  back here in
the back, I'll be out in a minute."

Now I'm gonna see if anyone has found a cure for my malady.
I suffer, at times, from optorectalitis. That's where a hemoriod
forms on the optic nerve and gives the victim a shitty outlook
on life.


Oops, duty calls. I'd better get to it.
Ya'll take it light.

Frye (who else?) again.
