A man wakes up in the hospital

A man wakes up in the hospital, bandaged from head to foot…

The doctor comes in and says,

“Ah, I see you’ve regained consciousness… Now you probably won’t remember, but you were in a huge pile-up on the freeway.

You’re going to be okay… you will walk again and everything; however, your tool was severed in the accident and we could not find it.”

The man groans, but the doctor goes on…

“You have $9,000 in insurance compensation coming and we now have the technology to build a new tool.

It will work great, but it won’t come cheap!’.. it’s roughly $1,000 an inch!”

The man perks up.

“So,” the doctor says,

“You must decide how many inches you want, but… I understand that you have been married for over thirty years and this is something you should discuss with your wife… If you had a five-inch before and get a nine-inches now, she might be a bit put out.

If you had a nine-inches before and you decide to only invest in a five-inches now, she might be disappointed.

It’s important that she plays a role in helping you make a decision.”

The man agrees to talk it over with his wife.

The doctor comes back the next day, “So, have you spoken with your wife?”

“Yes, I have,” says the man.

“And has she helped you make a decision?”

“Yes,” says the man.”

“What is your decision?” asks the doctor.

“We’re getting granite counter tops!”
