An Elderly Woman Goes to the Doctor [long] An elderly woman goes to the doctor and he asks her what the problem is. ""Well, you see, lately I have been having terrible problems with gas. Fortunately, they're very quiet and they have no odor. In fact, you'd probably be surprised to know that I've passed wind 4 times since you've come into the room."" ""I see,"" says the doctor. He proceeds to examine her and writes her a prescription. Two weeks later, the same woman comes into the office, indignant about her course of treatment. ""I don't know exactly what was in those pills you gave me, but it did NOT solve my gas problem. While they are still silent, they now smell absolutely horrible,"" she states. ""Good, I'm glad to see that your sinus infection has cleared up. Now, we need to get you an appointment with an audiologist.""
