This isn't really GKC, but the current issue of Gilbert features an interview between Dale Ahlquist and Thomas Cook, a psychiatrist. This exchange cracked me up:

Dale: You have worked as a forensic psychiatrist in a state hospital. That sounds crazy. Tell us what you have experienced.

TC: I recently spoke with a patient who told me she had been shot by a 'fertility dart' and had 88 babies. Another man told me that his blood had been drained from his body and replaced with heroin mixed with Elmer's glue. Another man told me wanted a Bible. I noted that he was already reading a Bible. He stared at me intensely and said emphatically, 'No. . . I want a HOLY Bible."
