An old lady goes to the doctor and says, "I have this

problem with frequent gas. Fortunately, the farts never

smell and are always silent. As a matter of fact, I've

farted at least 10 times since I've been here, and I bet

you didn't even notice!" The doctor says, "I see. Take

these pills and come back next week." The next week

the old lady returns. "Doctor," she says, "I don't know

what the hell you gave me, but now my silent farts

stink like the dickens." The doctor says, "Good! Now

that we've cleared up your sinuses, let's work on your

hearing."
