An old geezer, who had been a retired farmer for a long time, became very bored and decided to open a medical clinic. He put up a sign outside that said: "Dr. Geezer's clinic. "Get your treatment for $500. If not cured get back $1,000."
Doctor "Young," who was positive that this old geezer didn't know beans about medicine, thought he would make some money. So he went to Dr. Geezer's clinic.
This is what transpired.
Dr. Young: --- "Dr. Geezer, I have lost all taste in my mouth. Can you please help me?
Dr. Geezer: --- "Nurse, please bring medicine from box 22 and put three drops in his mouth."
Dr. Young: --- "Aaagh !! -- "This is Gasoline!"
Dr. Geezer: --- "Congratulations! You've got your taste back. That will be $500."
Dr. Young is annoyed and returns in a few days figuring to recover his money. --- "I have lost my memory, I cannot remember anything."
Dr. Geezer: --- "Nurse, bring medicine from box 22 and put three drops in the patient's mouth."
Doctor Young: --- "Oh no you don't. That's gasoline!"
Dr. Geezer: --- "Congratulations! You've got your memory back. That will be $500."
Dr. Young leaves angrily and comes back after several more days. --- "My eyesight has become weak. I can hardly see.
Dr. Geezer: --- "Well, I don't have any medicine for that ,so here's your $1000 back."
Dr. Young: --- "But this is only $500."
Dr. Geezer: --- "Congratulations! You got your vision back! That will be $500."
Moral of story: Just because you're "Young" doesn't mean you can outsmart an old "Geezer!"
