Guest guest Posted May 9, 2007 Report Share Posted May 9, 2007 Watch out Medical Community, WALMART is expanding its empire! Wal-Mart Shopper > Joe and Mike were visiting one day and Joe said, " My elbow hurts like hell. I guess I'd better see a doctor. " > > " Listen, you don't have to spend that kind of money, " Mike replied. " There's a diagnostic computer down at Wal-Mart. Just give it a urine sample and the computer will tell you what's wrong and what to do about it. It takes ten seconds and costs ten dollars ... A lot cheaper than a doctor. " > > So, Joe deposited a urine sample in a small jar and took it to Wal-Mart. > He put ten dollars into the machine and the computer lit up and asked for the urine sample. Joe poured the sample into the slot and waited. > > Ten seconds later, the computer ejected a printout: " You have tennis > elbow ... Soak your arm in warm water and avoid heavy activity. It will > improve in two weeks. Thank you for shopping @ Wal-Mart. " > > That evening, while thinking how amazing this new technology was, Joe began wondering if the computer could be fooled. He mixed some tap water, a stool sample from his dog, urine samples from his wife and daughter, and a sperm sample for good measure. > > Joe hurried back to Wal-Mart, eager to check the results. He deposited ten dollars, poured in his concoction, and awaited the results. > > Ten seconds later the computer printed the following: > > 1. Your tap water is too hard. Get a water softener. (Aisle 9) > 2. Your dog has ringworm. Bathe him with anti-fungal shampoo. (Aisle 7) > 3. Your daughter has a cocaine habit. Get her into rehab. > 4. Your wife is pregnant. Twins. They aren't yours. Get a lawyer. > 5. If you don't stop playing with yourself, your elbow will never get better! > Thank you for shopping @ Wal-Mart > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
