Years Ago. . . .


Years ago we didn't have the Internet and sayings would be posted on the Bulletin Board at work. I have kept a folder of them over the years. Has anyone else? Do you remember this one?
ATTENDING DOCTOR
Leaps tall buildings in a single bound.
Is more powerful than a locomotive.
Is faster than a speeding bullet.
Walks on water.
Gives policy to God.

CHIEF RESIDENT DOCTOR
Leaps short buildings in a single bound.
Is more powerful than a switch engine.
Is just as fast as a speeding bullet.
Walks on water if sea is calm.
Talks with God.

RESIDENT DOCTOR
Leaps short buildings in running bound and favorable wind.
Is almost as fast as a switch engine.
Is faster than a speeding BB.
Walks on water in a swimming pool.
Talks with God if a special request is approved.

INTERN DOCTOR
Clears a small hut.
Loses race with locomotive.

She is God.

Loved this one! I've had it on my clipboard for the last 6 years or so. Just what I need sometimes during a busy day!
