Read this magazine at the doctors waiting room, here's the joke, by memory.
"Joe and Bill work in a sawmill, Bill was rather careless.
At the sawmill, Bill accidentally sawn his arm off, Joe put the arm in a plastic bag, rushed him to the hospital where they had sewn it back on. Joe visited Bill the next day where Bill was playing tennis in rehab, Joe remarked at the miracles of modern medicine.
Back at the sawmill, Bill accidentally sawn his leg off, Joe put the leg in a plastic bag, rushed him to the hospital where they had sewn it back on. Joe visited Bill the next day where Bill was playing football in rehab, Joe remarked again at the miracles of modern medicine.
Back at the sawmill again, this time, Bill accidentally sawn his head off, Joe put the head in a plastic bag, rushed him to the hospital but couldn’t stay so visited Bill the next day.
Where’s Bill, Joe asked the doctor not finding Bill anywhere.
The doc replied, some moron put Joe’s head in a plastic bag, and he died of suffixation before we could sew it back on."
Another one.
"Bill called his HMO after he received an injury from trying to clear some grass under his rotary lawn mower.
The woman on the other end of the line said we won't cover that.
Bill asked why.
She said only a moron would stick his hand under a running mower and being a moron is a pre-existing condition, we don't cover pre-existing conditions."
