Mary went to the hospital to have her CT scan. As usual she was a companies by her friend Anne. But she didn’t know that Emile the cat was in Anna’s handbag today.
As you know some women like to have very big handbags but have you never wondered what they are carrying inside these bags?
Annie, they are going to put some iodine into one of my veins, she informed her friend .
Well it doesn’t matter which one they’re putting it into because all your blood circulates around your entire body is it once every 24 hours or is it once a year I’m not sure.
I think you’re thinking about the sun and the earth and the moon which has got nothing to do with the human circulatory system.
Yes Mary I think you’re right I was never very good at science.
And you have no common sense either
How could it take a whole year for the blood to circulates round my body. I would turn into a stone!
I just wasn’t thinking properly I apologize. But why should I apologize because I was born like this… in the lower half of the normal curve for the IQ. God must be very good at statistics.
Oh don’t worry I know what it’s like I’m sure I will say something quite stupid while I’m in the hospital. Doctors seem to bring out the worst in me.
If you feel like that maybe you shouldn’t speak at. After all irs only scan of your kidneys not your brain.
Do you think if you’re having a brain scan that talking will make the scan come out differently? It seems a ridiculous idea to me but you never know is these days especially if you watch Fox News.
Mary lay down on the on the cold metal bed that was part of the CT scanner.
Will it be alright if I put a cannula into your arm, the nurse enquired kindly?
If I say no, what will you do Mary asked
Well it’s not really a question it’s just a form of politeness so we don’t just grab your arm and stick the cannula in as it will be seen as very invasive.
You are in a very powerful position aren’t you as a nurse here before you could ask me a question which I cannot actually give a truthful answer to because I don’t like having cannulas put in. I really don’t want you to put it in but I have read the explanation on the internet and I realised it will better if you do put it in.
You really need to study philosophy and language and many other topics before you could understand these pseudo questions that doctors had nurses and other people may ask you.
Why it’s almost as if Benjamin Netanyahu rang up the new Ruler of Iran and asked him would he mind he dropped a bomb on his home.?
If they did that then they would say it wasn’t a war because the Iranian person had agreed or at least not disagreed when he was asked if he would mind having a bomb dropped on him.
Is it what they call a rhetorical question asked Annie nervously as she stroked Mary’s cat Emile who was in her handbag without permission of the hospital.
I knew I shouldn’t have brought a cat she thought anxiously.
If he meows it will cause a lot of trouble and since Mary can’t see him or touch him it’s of no benefit to her that he is nearby. I must be out of my mind she thought. Don’t tell me I’m getting dementia.
