Qne night at rehearsal Joe says to Mike, "My elbow is killing me, I think I need to go to the doctor". "It will be ages before you get an appointment", Mike says " there is a diagnostic computer down at Wal-Mart, just give it a urine sample and it will tell you whats wrong in a few minutes, and its only ten bucks". Joe goes home, does the 'business' in a wee jar and pops along to Wal-Mart next morning.
He deposits his ten dollars and the computer lights up and asks for the urine sample. Twenty seconds later out comes the printout
"You have tennis elbow. Soak your arm in warm water and avoid heavy activity. It will improve in two weeks........Thank you for shopping @ Wal-Mart".
During the day, thinking how amazing this new technology was, Joe wondered if the computer could be fooled.
He mixed up some tap water, a stool sample from his dog, urine samples from his wife and daughter, and a sperm sample.
He deposits his ten dollars, pours in his concoction and waits for the result.
The computer printout read........
1. Your tap water is too hard, get a water softener [Aisle 9]
2. Your dog has ringworm, bathe him with anti-fungal shampoo.
[Aisle 7]
3. Your daughter has a cocaine habit, get her into rehab.
4. Your wife is pregnant, Twins, they aren't yours. Get a lawyer.
5. If you don't stop playing with your self, your elbow will never get better!
Thank you for shopping @ Wal-Mart.
