Because life is always better accompanied by a laugh, here’s today’s joke, entitled “Blind Spot.”
A psychiatrist approached a teenage boy lying in a hospital bed. His mother sat nearby, quietly knitting.
“Hallo there, I’m Dr. Levin. I’d like to ask you a few questions.”
Suddenly, the boy became agitated.
“I can’t see! I can’t see!”
Dr. Levin was startled by the outburst and was aghast. He turned to the mother and asked:
“How long has this been going on?”
Without looking up from her knitting, the mother replied:
“Ever since you stepped in front of the television.”
