	I would like to collect stories, anecdotes, malapropisms, misnomers,
etc., which are humorous, and related to Medicine (from either the doctor
or patients's view) for a possible Canonical Collection (I know, YACC)

	The following joke circulates around here about a patient who
transfers from  a prestigious nearby institution after a full admission
workup. The resident is asking Abie about his transfer.
	R: Was it the doctors?
	A: The doctor's there  - I can't complain.
	R: Was it the food?
	A: The food there - neah, I can't complain.
	R: How about the nurses? the staff?
	A: The people there, all of them - I can't complain
This went on for several other topics, with Abie always answering "I can't
complain."
Finally:
	R: So, just why exactly did you transfer to this hospital?
	A: Because here, HERE - I CAN COMPLAIN!
