The Doctor
Paddy and his pregnant wife live on
a farm in the distant rural regions of
Ireland. No running water, no
electricity, etc. One night, Paddy's
wife is begins to deliver the baby.
The local doctor is there in attendance.
"What d'ya want me to do, Doctor?" "Hold
the lantern, Paddy, me boy. Here it
comes!" the doctor delivers the child
and holds it up for the proud father to
see.
"Paddy, you're the proud father of a
fine strapping boy." "Saints be praised,
I..."
Before Paddy can finish the Doctor
interrupts, "Wait a minute. Hold the
lantern, Paddy."
Soon the doctor delivers the next
child. "You've a full set now, Paddy. A
beautiful baby daughter!"
"Thanks be to..." Paddy starts to say.
Again the Doctor cuts in, "Hold the
lantern, Paddy, Hold the lantern!"
Soon the Doctor delivers a third child.
The doctor holds up the baby for Mike's
inspection. "Doctor," asks Paddy, "Do
you think it's the light that's
attracting them?"
