A new take on the oldest profession

...And also more fun at the doctors
So, my primary care doc is amazing. Not only is he also my cardiologist, but he is absolutely hilarious! Here's a recent sample of such an exchange after politicking about health care and our ancestral lands. I'll be paraphrasing and substituting a few details to protect identities.
Me: 'I was looking into dual citizenship for Egypt, but their health care seems pretty backwards. I dunno if I'd be able to get citizenship through Turkey, cuz that's three generations back.'
Dr.Heart-Strings: 'That whole part of the world is pretty backwards, but Turkey isn't as bad.'
Me: 'Yeah, that's what I've heard. They seem to be the most progressive.'
Dr.Heart-Strings: 'The people there were great. I passed through Egypt and didn't much like it- they didn't have a great attitude so I didn't stick around long.'
Me: 'That sucks, I'm sorry.'
Dr.Heart-Strings: 'Yeah and I didn't really have much interest in seeing anything there. I'm a doctor! I don't want to see dead people, I treat the living!'
I begin to crack up at this point, but there's more...
Dr.Heart-Strings continues: 'They're prostitutes! I mean, they call them ''mummies'', but they're still selling their bodies!'
At this point I'm laughing quite hard, but he continues!
Dr.Heart-Strings: '...and then they call it halal!'
I couldn't take it anymore and neither could he--we burst out in raucous laughter and tears of hilarity.
Truly a great man! As they say, 'laughter is the best medicine.' He definitely fills that rx every time, and he's got a million of 'em!
More to come from him in future posts,
but that's all for now!
