'Where's the patient?' 'I am the patient,' Jeff Gordon says - Sprint Cup Series - Scenedaily.com

AVONDALE, Ariz. – While talking about his massive crash Sunday at Las Vegas Motor Speedway, Jeff Gordon recalled a somewhat-humorous visit to a hospital after a big wreck at Pocono Raceway in 2006.
Gordon lost the brakes in his No. 24 Hendrick Motorsports Chevrolet heading into Turn 1 at Pocono and slammed the outside wall. He was fine, though he was sent to a New York hospital for a CAT scan.
“This part of the hospital, I don’t think many of their patients walk in,” Gordon said.
“I’m here for my CAT scan,” Gordon told hospital personnel.
“Well, where’s the patient?”
“Well, I am the patient.”
“They told us there was a car accident.”
“Yeah.”
“How fast were you traveling?”
“About 200 when the brakes went out. I think I hit about 150, 160 mph.”
“No, seriously. Where’s the patient?"

Thanks Scenedaily, that is funny.  I can picture this almost like an Abbot and Costello 'Whose on First' routine.

From the 'shut up' department

'Shut Up' Is Hit Ringtone in Spain | World Latest | Guardian Unlimited:
"MADRID, Spain (AP) - The King of Spain's bad-tempered intervention at a summit last week, in which he told Venezuelan leader Hugo Chavez to shut up, has become a smash hit across Spain, news reports said on Monday. Around half a million people have downloaded a mobile phone ringtone featuring the words ``Why don't you shut up?'', the Madrid leading daily El Pais said on its website. The spat began at a summit in Chile on Saturday when Chavez accused former Spanish Prime Minister Jose Maria Aznar of backing a coup that briefly removed him from power and repeatedly called Aznar ``fascist.''"

I bloged on the original event last week but I think that this even funnier. Can you imagine everyones phone saying `Why don't you shut up?' And to know where it came from.....

From the 'Life is funnier than movies' department

FOXNews.com - World Hot Dog-Eating Champion Crippled by Jaw Injury
"TOKYO — A Japanese man who set a world record by wolfing down dozens of hot dogs within minutes has suffered a severe jaw injury due to his rigorous training, making his next title uncertain.

Takeru 'Tsunami'' Kobayashi said he can only open his mouth to make a gap the size of a fingertip after being diagnosed with jaw arthritis."

This is just really to funny. I feel sad for the guy, but if you wrote this in a movie or TV show, no one would really believe it.
