Driving Fool And Diabetic Fool

I was stopped at a red light behind another car. When the light turned green, the car in front started to drive and then abruptly stopped. I stopped and looked around. There were no cars, people, pets or anything else in the way. The car then took off again only to slam on the brakes a second later. I stopped in time, but I'm convinced that the driver was trying to get me to crash into him. He was probably trying to earn a little extra cash through insurance fraud. I'm glad that I keep a good distance between me and other cars.

At work, I took a message concerning an admission we were receiving and wrote down the information and gave it to the secretary. The secretary read the note and said, "What is the patient's diagnosis?" I thought that it was a strange diagnosis too, "diabetic foot", but it seemed obvious what it meant. It's a dying, decaying foot.

That wasn't the secretary's problem, though. She wondered why we were getting a diabetic fool. I had forgotten to cross the T, so the foot looked like a fool. We get quite a few diabetic fools and non-diabetic fools through here, but it would be unusual to so bluntly label them.
