I once cut myself pretty badly, while pruning a tree.
I went to the hospital emergency room.  It was pretty
crowded there, and I had to wait a long time.  Finally
it was my turn, and I started to describe my problem to
the doctor.
   "Hold On! Hold On! Hold On!", they said grumpily.  I saw
the doctor fish out a pad of paper from one pocket, and from
another pocket they fished out a rectal thermometer.  Well,
the doctor looked at the thermometer with consternation for
a second of two, cursed, and then said, "Some asshole has my pen!"
