On Life Support

Moishe and Miriam had long been neglecting it but they knew the time had come to get their affairs in order. They went to a lawyer to discuss their wills and outlined for him their ideas about how their estate should be handled.

The lawyer then asked them questions about what medical means should be employed should they become severely injured.

Miriam took Moishe’s words to heart. When they got home, she cut the TV cord and threw the TV in the garbage. When Moishe looked at her in shock she replied, “You said you don’t want to be regulated by some machine!”
