Someone has put up on YouTube the Channel News Asia programme "Guardian of Our Skies" -- a tribute to the Republic of Singapore Air Force ((RSAF). Here it is:

From the skies to some down-to-earth humour. This one was sent to me by two friends separately on the same day (note: a proctologist is usually known as a colorectal surgeon here in Singapore):
The Psychiatrist & the Proctologist
Two best friends graduated from medical school at the same time. They decided that, despite their different specialties, they would open a practice together and share the office space and staff.
Dr. Smith, the psychiatrist, and Dr. Jones, the proctologist, did not want to put up the usual boring sign above their shared office. So they came up with this one:
"Dr. Smith and Dr. Jones: Hysterias and Posteriors".
Well, the town council members had no funny bones inside them and they insisted that the two medical specialists change the sign. So, the docs changed it to read:
"Schizoids and Haemorrhoids".
This was also not acceptable, so they again changed the sign to:
"Catatonics and High Colonics".
No go. Next, they tried:
"Manic Depressives and Anal Retentives".
That of course got the thumbs down. Then came:
"Minds and Behinds".
Nope. Another attempt resulted in"
"Lost Souls and Butt Holes".
Unacceptable again!
"Analysis and Anal Cysts".
Not a chance.
"Nuts and Butts".
No way.
"Freaks and Cheeks".
Still no good.
"Loons and Moons".
Forget it. Almost at their wits' end, the docs finally came up with:
"Dr. Smith and Dr. Jones -- Specialising in Odds and Ends".
Everyone from the town council loved it.

So, if a gynaecologist and an undertaker got married, would they offer a "cradle to grave" service?
Okay, last item has also to do with doctors. It's either a very clever play on words or the creation of a bored doctor who has plenty of time or who has run out of patients (or, in the words of someone I know, someone "who is swatting at mosquitoes"):
If one doctor doctors another doctor does the doctor who doctors the doctor doctor the doctor the way the doctor he is doctoring doctors? Or does the doctor doctor the way the doctor who doctors doctors?
