During a visit to the mental asylum, I asked the Director, 'How do you determine whether or not a patient should be institutionalized?'

Well,' said the Director, 'we fill up a bathtub, and then we offer a teaspoon, a teacup and a bucket to the patient and ask him or her to empty the bathtub.'

Oh, I understand,' I said. 'A normal person would use the bucket because it's bigger than the spoon or the teacup.'

No.' said the Director, 'A normal person would pull the plug. Do you want a bed near the window?'

ARE YOU GOING TO PASS THIS ON, OR DO YOU WANT THE BED NEXT TO MINE?
