3 Very Ill Men

[Guest john]

3 desperately ill men consulted with their local doctor 1 day to discuss their individual illnesses so as to secure a plan to rid them of their habits. 1 was an alcoholic, 1 was a chain smoker & 1 was gay.

 

The doctor addressing the 3 men said: "If any of you indulge in your vices again, each of you will certainly fall off the perch". The 3 men then left the doctors surgery & decided to forgo their vices forthwith.

 

The following day as they were walking down the main street, they passed a pub,. The alcoholic hearing the loud sound of music & smelling beer, could not stop himself. His mates accompanied him into the bar, where he ordered a large whiskey. No sooner had he emptied the glass & put it back onto the bar for another, he suddenly fell off his bar stool stone dead.

 

His other 2 mates somewhat shaken, left the bar, realising how seriously they must adhere to their doctors medical advice. As they were strolling along the road, they came upon a cigarette butt on the ground which was still alight. The chainsmoker stopped in his tracks & stared at the cigarette butt for a moment. The gay guy looked at the chain smoker & said to him: "If you bend over to pick up that cigarette butt, we'll be both dead".
