Mechanic
« on: May 25, 2010, 05:42:30 AM »

A mechanic was removing a cylinder-head from the motor of a Harley
motorcycle when he spotted a well-known cardiologist in his shop.  The
cardiologist was there waiting for the service manager to come and take a look at his bike when the mechanic shouted across the Garage.

"Hey, Doc, want to take a look at this?"

The cardiologist, a bit surprised, walked  over to where the mechanic was working on the motorcycle.

The mechanic straightened up, wiped his hands on a rag and asked,
 
"So Doc, look at this engine. I open its  heart, take the valves out,  repair any damage, and then put them back in, and when I finish, it  works just like new.
 
So how come I make $39,675 a year and you get the really big bucks
($1,695,759) when you and  I are doing basically the same work?"
 
The cardiologist paused, smiled and leaned over, then whispered to the
mechanic...
"Try doing it with the engine running."
To fire an accurate shot means to not just hit the target, but to know where the target was hit before the bullet got there.
