An elderly man visits his doctor for a checkup.
The doctor asks him if he’s having any memory issues.
He says “No problem there, doc”.
The doctor asks how his knees are holding up.
He says “Great. Last night my wife and I ate at this terrific Chinese restaurant on the second floor and I bounded right up and down them stairs.”
The doctor says “Splendid. You know, I love Chinese food. What’s the name of this place?”
The man thinks hard but can’t quite come up with it.
He says “Wait, wait, I’ll get it. What’s the name of that pretty red flower with the thorns?”
The doctor says “You mean the rose?”
The guy brightens and says “Yeah, that’s it.”
He turns toward the waiting room and shouts “Hey Rose, what’s the name of that Chinese place we ate at last night?”
