And this went on for more then 3 years. The two of them never spoke. One day, as the young man passed the old lady's stand and left his quarter as usual, the pretzel lady spoke to him.
"Sir, I appreciate your business. You are a very good customer, but I have to tell you that the pretzel price has gone up to 35 cents."

When a panel of doctors was asked to vote on adding a new wing to their
hospital, the Allergists voted to scratch it and the Dermatologists advised
no rash moves.
The Gastroenterologists had a gut feeling about it, but the Neurologists
thought the administration had a lot of nerve, and the Obstetricians stated
they were all laboring under a misconception.
The Ophthalmologists considered the idea shortsighted; the Pathologists
yelled, "Over my dead body", while the Pediatricians said, "Grow up!"
The Psychiatrists thought the whole idea was madness, the surgeons decided

administration.

This went on for some time, until the general
arranged to have the soldier psychologically tested. The army psychologist
concluded that the soldier was deranged, and wrote out his discharge
paper from the army.
The soldier picked it up, smiled and said: " Oy, oy...That's it."
