Six surgeons were sitting around discussing their favorite patients when the first stated that he especially enjoyed operating on poets and artists because . . .
"When I cut them open, they are filled with beautiful colors and the operating room is bathed in wonderful light."
"No way!" said the second surgeon, "I prefer operating on accountants. Inside everything is neat and orderly and all the parts are numbered."
"Nah," said the third surgeon, "librarians are the best. Everything inside them is in alphabetical order."
The fourth responds: "Try electricians, man! Everything inside them is color coded!"
The fifth intercedes: "Personally, I prefer engineers. They always understand when you have a few parts left over at the end."
"You're all wrong," said the sixth surgeon, "The best are lawyers. No guts, no heart, no spine. They only have two parts — their mouths and their rears, and both of these are interchangeable!"
