on a similar note, anybody hear the joke about the behaviourist???

this guy had been going to see a therapist for a while... to deal with his fear that monsters would come out at him from under his bed in the night. they worked on the problem for many many years, but he still had this fear about the monsters coming out from under his bed.

he changed therapists...

and then a couple of weeks later the two therapists run into each other in a pub and they are having a chat. the new therapist is telling the old therapist about this client he had who had this fear of monsters coming out at him from under his bed. the old therapist says something about how he worked with someone for many years trying to change that, but with no luck. 'oh, i managed to cure that in one session' the new therapist says. the other one asks 'how on earth did you do that'?

'it was simple' he replied.
'i just told him to cut the legs off his bed'.

no moral...
i'm not sure what to make of this...
but just thought i'd share...
