As your example proved, sometimes the bugs were real.Dave Chesserhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01427931253247227806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14473417.post-31139162124993482592008-05-11T13:12:00.000-07:002008-05-11T13:12:00.000-07:00When I did a tour of the mental hospital at Jackso...When I did a tour of the mental hospital at Jackson, LA -- a place that could have been the model for Cuckoo's Nest -- we got to sit in on patient session wherein they were being evaluated for furlough. The shrink told us that they coached each other for the process, telling patients what to say or not-say to get the pass.<BR/><BR/>Guy came in, Bill. Smiled, sat, greeted the doctor.<BR/>"How's it going, Bill?"<BR/><BR/>"Great, Doc! I'm feeling much better, I'm taking my meds, doing good."<BR/><BR/>"Great to hear, Bill. How are your anger issues?"<BR/><BR/>"Fine, no problem! I just count to a hundred and let them pass."<BR/><BR/>"Great, Bill."<BR/><BR/>"So, you think I can have a pass?"<BR/><BR/>"Well, I don't think you are quite ready for that, Bill."<BR/><BR/>"Goddamn motherfucking bastard!" Bill said, whereupon he stood and stomped out of the room<BR/><BR/>One of the nursing students looked at the shrink. "Wh-What's his diagnosis?" she asked.<BR/><BR/>"Bill, oh he's crazy," the shrink said.<BR/><BR/>Never forgot that.Steve Perryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12079658447270792228noreply@blogger.com
