Another one from the files of the somewhat shy and retiring Abie...

Small Brown Bottle

The other day I went over to a nearby CVS Pharmacy.

When I got there, I went straight to the back of the store to where the
Pharmacy counter is located and took out my little brown bottle along
with a teaspoon and laid them both onto the counter.

The pharmacist came over, smiled, and asked if he could help me.

I said, "Yes, Could you please taste this for me?"

Being I'm a senior citizen.... the Pharmacist went along with me, and
picked up the spoon and put a tiny bit of the liquid on his tongue and
swilled it around. Then with a stomach-churning look on his face, he
spit it out on the floor and began coughing.

When he was finally finished, I looked him right in the eye asked, "Now,
does that taste sweet to you?"

The pharmacists, shaking his head back and forth with a venomous look
in his eyes yelled, "*#*@% NO!"

So I said, "Oh thank Goodness, that's a relief! My doctor told me to get
my urine tested for sugar!"

Well, I can never go back to that CVS, but I really don't care because
they aren't very friendly there.
