I heard it; now I need to UNhear it.

My wife and I went for a drive in my TR6 tonight as the weather was perfect. On the way back we stopped at her favorite ice cream store.
We were seated outside enjoying our ice cream when I overheard the two older guys at the next table "comparing" the meds they take.
The next thing I overheard was the one guy telling his friend that he takes the same medication.
Yeah he said "I take 100 ~mammograms~ a day of that stuff"
I nearly lost my ice cream cone when I heard that..... I wonder if the guy had any idea what I was laughing about?

One of those moments in life when you know you shouldn't laught out loud, but you just can't help yourself. Like the time I was riding my Honda Express home from college (circa 1980) and decided to stop into an Albertson's to pick up some snacks. As I was standing in line, a VERY "substantial" woman in skin-tight blue jeans was in front of me. She bent over to get something off a lower shelf near the register and, as she did, my eyes were involuntarily drawn to her --- you know. That's when I spotted a sew-on patch, right where the good Lord split her, which read "Carlsbad Caverns." I tried desperatly not to laugh - holding my nose and filling my cheeks with air until I thought my head was going to explode! It didn't really work. As I took my turn to check out, the cashier asked me what was so funny. I was unable to speak and just shook my head and waved off her question as I handed her my money. I think that event scarred me for life.

Years ago,while working as a cashier at Safeway,a customer paid
with a check.Her last name was Abby.All I could think of is "Abby...-
Abby Normal".I had to try hard not to start laughing.

Another time,a lady started to leave after I waited on her,& she
left her baby on the counter.I asked her if she wanted a bag,or if she
was going it with her.

OK, back in 2002 I was working on a bad movie called "Second to Die" starring Erica Eleniak. There was a scene where she was taking a bath and a radio she was listening to fell off a shelf into the water almost electrocuting her. I had to reset the radio and shelf for take 2, take 3, etc. Erica had some duct tape applied to hide her personals on the top side. Sharpied onto the tape was "If you are reading this, you're busted" In the bustle of the reset. I had to stop and admit I was busted. Here is a shot from that scene. I did not take this shot.

Greg That had to be a lot more interesting viewing than my Carlsbad Cavers patch!

PS: Are you sure it wasn't Gaffers Tape?

 

[GregW]

Well that would make sense. Hard to tell with the bubbles.

PS: Are you sure it wasn't Gaffers Tape?

All depends on the circumstance. Racers tape, gaffers tape, duct tape...

Whatever it may have been, hope there were no stray hairs underneath, instant cut rate dilapidation....

More like Greg bragging about how good his job was.

LOL! It was a tough job but somebody had to do it!

Reminiscent of the old Vaudeville schtick: "Doctor says my veins are too close together."

 

[Gliderman8]

Milligrams to MAMMOGRAMS.... Leo Gorcey would be proud.

We should do that more often.

 

[Gliderman8]

We should do that more often.

As long as it doesn’t go in the other direction.

For a smile, google "Cam Exam Canadian". A great ad created by a cancer society of Canada - putting a little humor into a very serious topic. (Hint, it involves teenage boys.)

(PG-13, maybe even PG, and not at all in bad taste. However, depending on your boss/peers, perhaps not the best thing to google while at work!)

 

[mikephillips]

If they take mammograms, is that two at a time and do they have to be unique across the whole 100??….

Benny Hill would be proud...
