THE FUNNIEST THINGS ARE TRUE

Bus Driver Replaces Mental Patients

HARARE, Zimbabwe (04-04) - After 20 mental patients disappeared from his bus,
the driver replaced them with sane citizens and delivered them to a mental
hospital.

The unidentified bus driver was transporting 20 mental patients from the
capital city of Harare to Bulawayo Mental Hospital when he decided to stop
for a few drinks at an illegal roadside liquor store.  Upon his return he was
shocked to discovered that all the mental patients have escaped.  Desperate
for a solution, the driver stopped at the next bus stop and offered free bus
rides.  20 people got on and then he delivered them to the mental hospital
and informed the staff they were easily excitable.

It took the medical personnel three days to uncover the foul play.  The real
mental patients are still at large.
