The Last Penny

A father walks into a restaurant with his young son. He gives the young boy
3 pennies to play with to keep him occupied.


Suddenly, the boy starts choking, going blue in the face. The father
realizes the boy has swallowed the pennies and starts slapping him on the
back. The boy coughs up 2 of the pennies, but keeps choking. Looking at his
son, the father is panicking, shouting for help.


A well dressed, attractive, and serious looking woman, in a blue business
suit is sitting at a coffee bar reading a newspaper and sipping a cup of
coffee. At the sound of the commotion, she looks up, puts her coffee cup
down, neatly folds the newspaper and places it on the counter, gets up from
her seat and makes her way unhurried across the restaurant.


Reaching the boy, the woman carefully drops his pants; takes hold of the boy
s testicles and starts to squeeze and twist, gently at first and then ever
so firmly. After a few seconds the boy convulses violently and coughs up
the last penny, which the woman deftly catches in her free hand. Releasing
the boy's testicles, the woman hands the penny to the father and walks back
to her seat at the coffee bar without saying a word.


As soon as he is sure that his son has suffered no ill effects, the father
rushes over to the woman and starts thanking her saying, "I've never seen
anybody do anything like that before, it was fantastic. Are you a doctor?"
