Nothing like a little heart valve humor to start\u00a0the weekend, right?<\/p>\n

I hope you enjoy this… It got me to chuckle!<\/p>\n

Here goes nothing!<\/p>\n

So… A mechanic was removing a cylinder head from the motor of a Harley, when he spotted a world-famous heart surgeon in his shop. The heart surgeon was waiting for the service manager to come take a look at his bike.<\/p>\n

The mechanic shouted across the garage, \u201cHey Doc can I ask you a question?\u201d The famous surgeon, a bit surprised, walked over to the mechanic working on the motorcycle.<\/p>\n

The mechanic straightened up, wiped his hands on a rag and asked, \u201cSo Doc, look at this engine. I also can open it up, take valves out, fix\u2019em, put in new parts and when I finish this will work just like a new one. So how come I get a pittance and you get the really big money, when you and I are doing basically the same work?\u201d<\/p>\n

The surgeon paused, smiled and leaned over, and whispered to the mechanic, \u201cTry doing it while it\u2019s running.\u201d<\/p>\n
