cough TREATMENT

[Kirk Reiser]

The owner of a drug store walks in to find a guy leaning heavily against =
a wall.  The owner asks the clerk, "What's with that guy over there by =
the wall?

The clerk says, "Well, he came in here this morning to get something for =
his cough.  I couldn't find the cough syrup, so I gave him an entire =
bottle of laxative."

The owner says, "You idiot!".  You can't treat a cough with a bottle of =
laxatives!"

The clerk says, "Of course you can! Look at him; he's afraid to cough!"
