A little old lady went to the doctor about her problem with flatulence. She said, "Doctor, I pass gas frequently and uncontrollably, though it has no odor and it passes without making any noise at all. Why, since I've been sitting here, I must have farted at least 20 times." The doctor gave her a prescription and said," Take these three times per day and come back in two weeks."

Duly the little lady returned, but complained, "Doctor, those pills you gave me were awful. Now my gas smells terrible!"

The doctor replied, "Good. Your sinuses are healed. Now I'll see what I can do about your deafness."
