Title: Psychiatrist or Bartender?
Post by: GrayBeard on June 22, 2010, 11:06:00 am
Psychiatrists vs. Bartenders

 
EVER SINCE I WAS A CHILD, I'VE ALWAYS HAD A FEAR OF SOMEONE UNDER MY BED AT NIGHT. SO I WENT TO A SHRINK AND TOLD HIM 'I've got problems. Every time I go to bed I think there's somebody under it.  I'm scared.  I think I'm going crazy.'

'Just put yourself in my hands for one year,' said the shrink. 'Come talk to me three times a week and we should be able to get rid of those fears..'

'How much do you charge?'
'Eighty dollars per visit,' replied the doctor.
 'I'll sleep on it,' I said.

Six months later the doctor met me on the street. 'Why didn't you come to see me about those fears you were having?' he asked.

'Well, Eighty bucks a visit three times a week for a year is an awful lot of money! A bartender cured me for $10. I was so happy to have saved all that money that I went and bought me a new pickup!'

'Is that so!' With a bit of an attitude he said, 'and how, may I ask, did a bartender cure you?'

'He told me to cut the legs off the bed! - Ain't nobody under there now!!!'
 
 
FORGET THE SHRINKS..
 TALK TO A BARTENDER

Good one GB! When I was a small kid I had the same fear. Didn't need a shrink though, just outgrew it :o

Sometimes a little ingenuity is all it takes. Good one graybeard.

Heya Ed, that was great.  Now if they would incorporate that idea into some horror movies, I think it would put a new twist on monsters.  LOL
