A nice, calm and respectable lady went into the
pharmacy, walked up to the
pharmacist, looked
straight into his eyes,and said, "I would like to
buy some cyanide."
The pharmacist asked, "Why in the world do you
need cyanide?"
The lady replied, "I need it to poison my husband."
The pharmacist's eyes got big and he exclaimed,
"Lord have mercy! I can't
give you cyanide to kill your husband. That's
against the law! I'll lose my
license! They'll throw both of us in jail! All
kinds
of bad things will happen. Absolutely not! You
CANNOT have any cyanide!"
The lady reached into her purse and pulled out a
picture of her husband in
bed with the
pharmacist's wife. The pharmacist looked at the
picture and replied,
"Well now, that's different. You didn't tell me you
had a prescription."
