The druggist


Upon arriving home, a husband was met at the door by his sobbing wife.
Tearfully she explained, "It's the druggist. He insulted me terribly this
morning on the phone."

Immediately the husband drove downtown to confront the druggist and demand
an apology. Before he could say more than a word or two, the druggist told
him, "Now just a minute, listen to my side of it. This morning the alarm
failed to go off, so I was late getting up. I went without breakfast and
hurried out to the car, just to realize that I locked myself out of the
house, with both house keys and car keys inside. I had to break a window to
get my keys.

Then driving a little too fast, I got a speeding ticket. Later, when I was
about three blocks from the store, I had a flat tire. When I finally got to
the store there was a bunch of people waiting for me to open. I got the
store opened and started waiting on these people, and all the time the damn
phone was ringing off the hook."

He continued, "Then I had to break a roll of nickels against the cash
register drawer to make change, and they spilled all over the floor. I got
down on my hands and knees to pick up the nickels, the phone was still
ringing. When I came up I cracked my head on the open register drawer,
which made me stagger back against a showcase with a bunch of perfume
bottles on it...half of them hit the floor and broke.

Meanwhile the phone is still ringing with no let up, and I finally got back
to answer it. It was your wife. She wanted to know how to use a rectal
thermometer..and believe me mister, as God is my witness, all I did was tell
her!"
