Ya Think....the clerk needs help

At 82 years old, my husband applied for his first passport. He was told he would need a birth certificate, but his birth had never been officially registered.


When he explained his dilemma to the passport agent, the response was less than helpful. "It's all right," the agent said. "Just bring a notarized affidavit from the doctor who delivered you."

Too busy

It was an absolutely crazy evening at our emergency clinic. The doctor on duty was being bombarded with questions, given forms to fill out, and even asked for his dinner order. I was in the next room, cleaning up a sutured wound, when I realized the doctor hadn't given instructions for a bandage.


"What kind of dressing do you want on that?" I shouted through the door.

"Ranch," he yelled back.
