Hugh Baird of Oshawa, Ont., says the soldier in a military hospital greeted the new arrival with: “Don’t trust the night nurse – she keeps the bedpans in the fridge.”
That reminded us of story about the late Joe Finn of Ottawa, a renowned practical joker, recorded a flushing toilet. He took the tape with him to the hospital when he underwent surgery and played it under the covers when he had to use the bedpan. He soon had everybody in the ward clamoring for the new flushing bedpan.
