They’re Still Looking For A Cure
(A coworker comes in late because he had to take his wife to the doctor.)
Me: “Hey! How’s your wife?”
Coworker: “She’s fine. She was showing some symptoms of Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever. The thing you can get from ticks?”
Me: “Isn’t that more an out-east thing?”
Coworker: “You’re thinking Lyme Disease. This area gets Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever.”
Me: “Okay. I once had symptoms of Rocky Horror Picture Show Fever.”
Coworker: “Yeah, I heard that was common back in the early 80s.”
(I laughed. At least he had the timeline right.)
