Learn from the Old Guy with Wisdom                                                                                                                                       A young doctor had moved out to a small community  to replace the retiring country doctor. The older doctor suggested the young one accompany him on his rounds so the community could become used to a  new doctor.
                                                                                                                                    At the first house a woman complained, "I've been a little  sick to my stomach." The older doctor said, "Well, you've probably  been overdoing the fresh fruit. Why not cut back on the amount you've been  eating and see if that does the trick?"                                                                                                                                      As they left the younger man said, "You didn't even examine  that woman. How did you arrive at your diagnosis so quickly?" "I didn't have to. You noticed I dropped my stethoscope on  the floor in there? When I bent over to pick it up, I noticed a half-dozen  banana peels in the trash. That was what was probably making  her sick."                                                                                                                               "Huh," the younger doctor said, "pretty clever. I think  I'll try that at the next house." Arriving at the next house, they spent several minutes  talking with a younger woman. She complained that she just didn't have the  energy she once did. "I'm feeling terribly run down lately." "You've probably been doing too much work for the church,"  the younger doctor told her. "Perhaps you should cut back a bit and see if  that helps."
                                                                                                                                    As they left, the elder doc said, "Your diagnosis is almost  certainly correct, but how did you arrive at it?"                                                                                                       "Well, just as you did at the last house, I dropped my  stethoscope and when I bent down to retrieve it, I noticed the preacher under  the bed."
