There were four surgeons taking a coffee break. They were discussing their favorite kind of patients:

 

The first surgeon said, "I like librarians because all their organs are arranged alphabetically."

 

The seond surgeon said, "I like math teachers because all their organs are arranged mathematically."

 

The third surgeon said, "I like electricians because all their organs are arranged by color."

 

The last surgeon said with pride, "I like lawyers because they have no hearts or guts and their heads and asses are interchangeable."
