博你一樂： 外科手術的最佳人選

俺的鄰居Joe是個典型的保守共和黨人。除了談天論地侃球經之外，經常與俺分享他對政治經濟和時事的看法與見解，其中不乏有些讓人忍俊不止時事笑話。編譯成中文供大家一樂。

五位大都市來的外科醫生聚會討論最喜愛給什麼樣的病人作手術。

頭一位來自紐約的大夫說：「我喜歡給會計作手術，因為開膛破腑后，你發現會計的內臟都按序號排列著。」

第二位從芝加哥來的大夫答道：「但我覺得你應該找個電工來試試，他們的器官都用色彩碼來編排。」

第三位來自達拉斯的大夫緊接著說：「不對，我認為圖書管理員才是最佳人選，這種人的一切都是按字母順序排列的。」

第四位從洛杉磯來的大夫應聲附和：「你們知道嗎，我喜歡修理工，這幫傢伙最擅長偷工減料，到時你總能找到剩餘的備份。」

最後一位來自首都華盛頓的大夫語驚四座：「你們全不對！華府的政客的手術最好做，他們沒心沒肺，沒膽沒肝，沒什麼腦子，也沒有脊梁骨。另外這幫傢伙的腦袋和屁股長得差不多，還可互換。」

原文在後

Five surgeons from big cities are discussing who makes the best
patients to operate on.

The first surgeon, from New York , says, "I like to see accountants
on my operating table because when you open them up, everything
inside is numbered."

The second, from Chicago , responds, "Yeah, but you should try
electricians! Everything inside them is color coded."

The third surgeon, from Dallas , says, "No, I really think
librarians are the best, everything inside them is in alphabetical order"

The fourth surgeon, from Los Angeles chimes in: "You know, I like
repair technicians...Those guys always understand when you have a
few parts left over."

But the fifth surgeon, from Washington , DC shut them all up when he
observed: "You're all wrong. Politicians are the easiest to operate on.
There's no guts, no heart, no balls, no brains and no spine, and the
head and the ass are interchangeable.
