Bathtub Test

During a visit to a mental institution, the 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?"
 
Oh darn...you gave away the answer, SM....now those guys will NEVER get honestly committed! :grin
 
Unfortunately, lobotomies have gotten a bad rap.

Now, Take bOB for example, you would never know in a causal conversation, that he had any problem.
 
Brucie - have you and bOB been conversing in a bathtub??

Seamom - I wasn't thinking. That happens frequently where B, b & M are concerned. :dizzy
