A local law enforcement officer stops a car for
traveling
faster than
the posted speed limit. Since he’s in a
good mood that day he decides
to give the poor fellow a break and
write him out a warning instead of
a
ticket. So, he asks the man
his name.
“Fred,” he replies. Fred what?” the officer asks. “Just
Fred,” the
man responds.
When the officer presses him for a last
name, the man tells him that
he used to have a last name but lost it.
The officer thinks he has a
nut
case on his hands but plays along
with it.
“Tell me Fred, how did you lose your last name?”
The man
replies, “It’s a long story so stay with me. I was born
Fred
Dingaling. I know, funny last name. The kids used to tease me all the

time.
So I stayed to myself. I studied hard and got good grades. When I
got
older I realized that I wanted to be a doctor. I went through
college,
medical school, internship, residency, finally got my
degree, so I was
Fred Dingaling, MD.
After a while I got bored
being a doctor so I decided to go back to
school. Dentistry was my
dream. Got all the way through school, got
my degree so I was now
Fred Dingaling MD DDS. I got bored doing
dentistry so I started fooling
around with my assistant. She gave me
VD.
So, I was Fred
Dingaling MD DDS with VD. Well, the ADA found out
about the VD so they took
away my DDS so I was Fred Dingaling MD
with VD. Then the AMA found
out about the ADA taking away my DDS
because of the VD, so they took
away my MD leaving me as
Fred Dingaling with VD. Then the VD took
away my dingaling so now
I’m just Fred.”
