At this point she tapped him on the shoulder and said, "When you get to the part about calling a doctor, I'm already here."

Nice one Bruce!

Reminds me of a true incident on the rather ancient and overcrowded underground train route in London that runs just between two stations - Waterloo and Bank (City of London) - oficially it's the Waterloo and City Line, but affectionately it is nick-named 'The Drain'. The journey takes about five minutes but seems like 15! The carriages are jam-packed filled to bursting during the commuter rush hour.

Generally the journey is undertaken in silence, but this particularly overcrowded morning one lady passenger had obviously reached the limit of her patience at being crushed between so many city gents, and her voice suddenly broke the quiet but otherwise ripe atmosphere: 'There are women in here you know!' to which there came the immediate chauvinistic reply:' Yes, they seem to turn up everywhere these days, don't they!' That exchange completed, the carriage returned to its normal silence for the rest of the journey. That's about as angry as we get.....
