BLACK MAGIC MARKER MISPLACED?

The patient was finely dressed with a southern gentleman's flair about him. Not a hair out of place,...pants perfectly creased. Our ER physician walked into the room and said "How can we help you today"? Without blinking an eye the patient responded straight faced in a long drawn out southern drawl "I hav ah magic mahker in mah rectum and I cahe NOT to answer any moh questions". OK.... the magic marker was removed, no further conversation. The gentleman brushed the wrinkles out of his shirt sleeves and walked out. He left his discharge instructions on the stretcher. Guess those aren't something a man of his stature leaves around.
