Mr. Smith called the doctor's office to find out his wife's test results. "I'm sorry", the nurse said, "but there's been a bit of a mix-up. When we sent your wife's sample to the lab, some samples from another Mrs. Smith were sent as well. One Mrs. Smith tested positive for Alzheimer's Disease, and the other has AIDS. We can't tell which results are your wife's." "That's terrible!", Mr Smith cried. "Can we do the test over to see the right answer?" "Normally, yes, but your HMO won't pay for these expensive tests to be run twice." "Well, what are we supposed to do?" "Well, the doctor recommends that you drop your wife off in the middle of town. If she finds her way home, don't sleep with her."
