Two medical students were walking along the street when they saw an old man walking with his legs spread apart.<\/p>\n
He was stiff-legged and walking slowly.<\/p>\n
One student said to his friend: \u201cI\u2019m sure that poor old man has Peltry Syndrome. Those people walk just like that.\u201d<\/p>\n
The other student says: \u201cNo, I don\u2019t think so. The old man surely has Zovitzki Syndrome. He walks slowly and his legs are apart, just as we learned in class.\u201d<\/p>\n
Since they couldn\u2019t agree they decided to ask the old man.<\/p>\n
They approached him and one of the students said to him, \u201cWe\u2019re medical students and couldn\u2019t help but notice the way you walk, but we couldn\u2019t agree on the syndrome you might have. Could you tell us what it is?\u201d<\/p>\n
The old man said, \u201cI\u2019ll tell you, but first you tell me what you two fine medical students think.\u201d<\/p>\n
The first student said, \u201cI think it\u2019s Peltry Syndrome.\u201d<\/p>\n
The old man said, \u201cYou thought \u2013 but you are wrong.\u201d<\/p>\n
The other student said, \u201cI think you have Zovitzki Syndrome.\u201d<\/p>\n
The old man said, \u201cYou thought \u2013 but you are wrong.\u201d<\/p>\n
So they asked him, \u201cWell, old timer, what do you have?\u201d<\/p>\n
The old man said, \u201cI thought it was gas \u2013 but I was wrong, too!\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
