When the doctor does his history and physical, he discovers that his poor patient has had practically every therapy known to man for his migranes and STILL no improvement. "Listen," says the doc.

The patient's family gathered to hear what the specialists had to

"Well, how much does a brain cost?" asked the relatives.
"For a male brain, $500,000. For a female brain, $200,000."

"A standard pricing practice," said the head of the team.
"Women's brains have to be marked down because they have actually
been used."
