Charm,
I bought the chicken soup book second hand, so Mr. Canfield received no royalities. However, this bit from Norman Cousins had us rolling. As Robert Lipsyte said, tumor humor isn't always tasty
[quote]When I was in the hospital my nurse really irritated me, so I decided to play a little joke on her.

One day, she brought in a specimen cup and requested a urine sample. After she left, I poured my apple juice into the cup. When she returned for the specimen, she observed it and noted, �My, we�re a little cloudy today, aren�t we?�

I asked to see it, removed the lid and said, �Yep, better run it through again,� and drank it. The look of shock on her face was priceless.
