    This was my favorite.

    Doctor, before you performed the autopsy, did you check for a pulse?

    A: No.

    Q: Did you check for blood pressure?

    A: No.

    Q: Did you check for breathing?

    A: No.

    Q: So, then it is possible that the patient was alive when you began the autopsy?

    A: No.

    Q: How can you be so sure, Doctor?

    A: Because his brain was sitting on my desk, in a jar.

    Q: But could the patient have still been alive, never the less?

    A: Yes, it is possible that he could have been alive and practising law somewhere.

    Q: And what were you doing at that time?

    Q: All your responses must be oral, OK? What school did you go to?

    A: Oral.

    True story:

    My old friend Donna was training a new receptionist at her job. She gave her a sheet explaining how to answer the phone, which read: "Dr. Smith's office, [your name] speaking". Which is exactly what the new receptionist said. Donna said, "no, let me show you" - the phone rang, Donna picked up and said, "Dr. Smith's office, Donna speaking", handled the call and told the new receptionist to answer the next call. New receptionist picks up phone and said, "Dr. Smith's office, Donna speaking". Needless to say, new receptionist was fired receptionist very quickly!

    I like this one:

    Q: This myasthenia gravis, does it affect your memory at all?

    A: Yes.

    Q: And in what ways does it affect your memory?

    A: I forget.

    Q: You forget. Can you give us an example of something that you've forgotten?

    I would have answered "If I could remember what I forgot, I wouldn't have forgotten it."

    None of this would ever happen to Jack McCoy, that's for sure.
