A man goes into the hospital for some tests. The medical staff knock him out, and when he comes around, there is a doctor peering over him, pulling up the eyelid and wielding the reflex hammer. The doctor says, “Ah, I’m glad you’re awake. I’m afraid I have some mixed news.” The man says, “Don’t hold back, Doc, tell me the bad news first.” The doctor says, “It was worse than we thought; we had to amputate your left leg.” The man then asks, “What’s the good news?” The doctor replies, “The man in the next bed wants to buy your slippers.”
