A nice, calm and respectable lady
went into the pharmacy, right 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 pharmacists 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."
