Love and marriage

Dr. Grumpy: "When did you call paramedics?"

Mrs. Leg: "Let's see... the numbness started around 10:20, and by 10:30 the leg was very weak. I couldn't use it to stand or walk or anything, so I asked Bill to dial 911."

Dr. Grumpy: "That's when they were notified?"

Mrs. Leg: "Well, no. He got up and brought me the phone during the next commercial break, then I called."

Ah, good ole conditional love. I love you, Baby, but your untimely paralysis is interrupting the game.

Don't ask the question if you can't stand the answer.

God help us.

Or course it's true love. Otherwise, he'd have gone to the bathroom and then to the kitchen to get a sandwich before bringing her the phone during the commercial break.

a.generic doc: actually, if it was not true love he would have asked her to make him a sandwich and bring it in to him before bringing her the phone...
