The Bath Tub Test

During a visit to the mental asylum, a visitor asked the Director how do you determine whether or not a patient should be institutionalized.
"Well," said the Director, "we fill up a bathtub, then we offer a teaspoon, a teacup and a bucket to the patient and ask him or her to empty the bathtub."
"Oh, I understand," said the visitor. "A normal person would use the bucket because it's bigger than the spoon or the teacup."
"No." said the Director, "A normal person would pull the plug. Do you want a bed near the window?"
DID YOU PASS, OR DO YOU WANT THE BED NEXT TO MINE ?

Dumb blonde, my bootie!
Forget the plug, bring on the teaspoon. I'm in!
Nice pajamas Q! Hey, this is fun.
Here are your green fuzzy alien slippers and Cheesehead hat.
I wonder what he gave Joannie?
The printer was named "Buffy" because it was always on "buffer" status
The stapler was named "Lupita" because it was a little ugly pain in the arse.
The fax machine was named "Chewy" because it always chewed up our faxes.
Just a little late night entertainment for y'all.
Somebody please get Paul his meds. Something stronger this time. He was skipping up and down the halls last night singing "I'm a little teacup." I locked my door but didn't sleep a wink.
I did not, however, skip up and down the halls singing silly songs. The Valium helps.
Because of last year's disaster, Nurse Ratchet said I have to put a pretend fire in the fireplace this Christmas. I TOLD her that the cheese started it but she doesn't believe me. Stupid cheese.
I found a package of red, orange and yellow construction paper and matching glitter glue on my table this morning. Joannie's coming over later to help me rip the paper into flame shapes. You can sing Christmas carols outside the locked door.
What's worse than solitary confinement? THIS!
I crack myself up. I found Joannie's valium. I can't tell you where I stored it but did you ever see the movie "Pulp Fiction"?
Sometimes she fancies herself to actually be The Riddler. She has a green suit with big black question marks on it and everything.
