LOL!

Hey, I saw that you're a Vietnam Veteran. Thanks. I saw Colonel Barry Bridger on Tuesday. He was in the Hanoi Hilton for almost 6 years.

You're welcome. Proud to have served.

Some years ago, I had radiating chest pains that went all the way down my left arm. Fearing a heart attack, I went to the saw bones. All the tests came back negative. He asked me how much coffee I drank. I told him 10+cups a day. He asked if I ate spicy foods. I said, "hey, I'm Italian". He asked about smoking. Yes, I smoke. Alcohol. Yes, I drink.

In the end he told me that for 3 months he wanted -

1. No coffee
2. No spicy foods
3. No cigarettes
4. No alcohol
5. No sex

I told him to just take me out back and shoot me!
