A man went to the doctor because he was very
overweight - he weighed 150kg (about 330 pounds).
He asked, "Could you give me some tablets to
help me lose weight, please, doctor?"
The doctor went to a cupboard and came back
with a large jar of small white tablets which he
gave to the man.
The man asked, "How many should I take per day,
doctor?"
The doctor replied, "Oh, I don't want you to take
these tablets. What I want you to do is drop all
the tablets on the floor three times a day, and then
pick them up one by one. You'll soon lose weight!"
