During a visit to the mental asylum, I asked the Director, "How do you
determine whether or not a patient should be institutionalised?"


"Well," explained the Director, "we fill up a bathtub, then we offer a
teaspoon, a teacup and a bucket to the patient and ask him or her to empty
the bathtub."



"Oh, I understand," I replied. "A normal person would use the bucket
because it's bigger than the spoon or the teacup."



"No," said the Director.  "A normal person would pull the plug.

Do you want a bed near the window?"
