Best Surgeon

Three Texas surgeons were playing golf together and discussing surgeries they had performed.

The first said, “I’m the best surgeon in Texas.  A concert pianist lost 7 fingers in an accident.  I reattached them and 8 months later he performed a private concert for the Queen of England.”

The second said, “That’s nothing. A young man lost both arms and legs in an accident.  I reattached them and 2 years later he won a gold medal in the Olympic decathlon.”

The third surgeon said, “You guys are amateurs. Several years ago a cowboy who was high on cocaine and alcohol rode a horse head-on into a train traveling 80 miles an hour.  All I had left to work with was the horse’s ass and a cowboy hat.  Now he’s president of the United States.”
