Hi! All,

Lord Nelson
-----------

The new inmate at the mental hospital announced in a loud voice that he was
the famous British naval hero, Lord Nelson. This was particularly
interesting, because the institution already had a 'Lord Nelson.'

The head psychiatrist, after due consideration, decided to put the two men
in the same room, feeling that the similarity of their delusions might
prompt an adjustment in each that would help in curing them. It was a
calculated risk, of course, for the two men might react violently to one
another, but they were introduced and then left alone and no disturbance
was heard from the room that night.

The next morning, the doctor had a talk with his new patient and was more
than pleasantly surprised when he was told:

"Doctor, I've been suffering from a delusion. I know now that I am not
Lord Nelson."

"That's wonderful," said the doctor.

"Yes," said the patient, smiling demurely, "I'm Lady Nelson".

Cheers,
Paul.
