A patient goes to see the doctor and says “I sound lousy.”

Doctor asks: “What are your symptoms?

Patient says: I’d rather jump off a bridge than speak in public;

my favorite words are: um, uh, ya’ know & like;

people look dazed & confused when I speak;

my 30-second commercial takes 30 minutes.

Finally the doctor wakes up, apologizes for snoring, and says: “The diagnosis is communicationitis;

the prescription is working with Dale Klein.”
