The cardiologist, a bit surprised, walked over to where
the mechanic was working on the motorcycle.
The mechanic straightened up, wiped his hands on a rag
and asked, "So Doc, look at this engine.
I opened its heart, take the valves out, repair any damage, and
then put them back in, and when I finish, it works just like new.
"So how come I make $39,675 a year and you make $1,695,000
when you and I are doing basically the same work?"
The cardiologist paused, leaned over, and then whispered
to the mechanic, "Try doing it with the engine running."
