LOL that is funny!

That reminds me of my uncle who is basically retired....he likes to shop the discount grocery shop and found some cans of cheap "beef and gravy".

So he prepared it (probably still excited about the good deal) and him and his wife started to eat it, and thought it tasted funny.  Not unexpected from the discount grocery, but he got up to check the empty cans anyway. 
Turns out in smaller letters were the words describing it as dog food!  He said that for a week he had to fight the urge to chase squirrels.....

I had a friend ask me once about hernias as he knew I'd had several operations for them.
He wanted to know how you knew if you had one.
I told him it was the pressure, if he felt a pressure he should see a hernia specialist.
He said what specialist. 
I said, "A very renowned chinese physician.
"Oh, What's his name," he asked.
"Dr. Won Hung Lo," I answered.

Here's your sign.

Since you brought it up Brian I may as well mention an account a doctor friend recounted yrs ago when he was a med student.

The hospital he was an intern with regularly saw prisoners and one such had a hernia of the type you described, almost to his knee. Get this, the guy was brought in for something else and the hernia he claimed didn't bother him and refused treatment for it! (ewey!!)
