Guest guest Posted April 7, 2012 Report Share Posted April 7, 2012 Fool Marks As a Gynaecologist, I am used to many intriguing questions, like: " If I start reciting ABCD while my child is in the abdomen, will it do better at school? " I reply, " Madam, the last person to do this was Abhimanyu, and he had a disastrous final exam! " However, one pregnant lady flummoxed me the other day. She put on a serious face and said, " Doctor, I am worried about the marks! " I grinned and said, " Lady, there is still plenty of time. Let the child first be born. Then you can hunt for a school. Marks will come much later. " " No, no! I am worried about my marks! " " Madam, we do not give marks for delivering a baby properly. At the most, if you have pushed properly, we could call you a 'pushy' lady- Ha Ha! Or are you worried that I might 'mark-up' the rates for your delivery a lot? " " No! No! You misunderstand! I am worried about the marks which will appear on my growing stomach. Can you do something to make them disappear? " " Well, yes! You can always wear your sari a bit higher. " " But there are so many creams. " " Don't use them, unless you like getting creamed, especially on your pocket. 'Mark' my words! Heh Heh! " " But doctor you must know some remedy to remove these marks. Please tell me! " " Well yes! There is only one lady who has successfully removed all traces of Marks. " " Tell me her name quickly and I will go to her. " " Her name is Mamata, and she is in Kolkatta. She has just announced that all traces of Marx and Lenin will be removed entirely from all history text books. However, I wouldn't advise you to go to Kolkatta. The infant mortality rate is very high in Poshchim Bongol despite a name so maternal like Mamata! -Kishore Shah Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
