(54,325 posts)The pharmacist, thinking he has not heard correctly, asks her to repeat her request.
"Cyanide, please, and I need a rather large dose of it, if you don't mind."
The pharmacist rolls his eyes and says, "ma'am, I don't think that is what you want. Cyanide is a deadly poison."
The woman retorts, "I'm quite aware of what cyanide is, thank you very much. It is indeed what I want."
The pharmacist says, "well, if you know what it is, just what makes you think I m going to just hand you over a large lethal dosage of it just like that?"
She reaches into her purse, and shows the pharmacist a large, detailed color photo of her husband in bed with the pharmacist's wife.
The pharmacist studies it for a moment, hands the photo back to her, and says, "well, you might have told me from the beginning that you had a prescription."
