Home / Woody Allen / Eggs Benedict

Photo of Woody Allen I had once a pain in the chestal area. Now, I was sure it was heartburn, y'know, cause at that time I was married and my wife cooking with her Nazi recipes, y'know, chicken Himmler. I didn't wanna pay 25 bucks to have it reaffirmed by some medic, that I had heartburn. But I was worried 'cause it was in the chestal area. Then it turns out my friend, Eggs Benedict, has a pain in his chestal area, in the same exact spot. I figured if I could get Eggs to go to the doctor, I could figure out what was wrong with me, at no charge, so I con Eggs. He goes. Turns out he's got heartburn. Cost him 25 dollars, and I feel great, cause I figured I beat the medic out of 25 big ones, y'know. Called up Eggs two days later... He died. I check into a hospital immediately, have a battery of test run... x-rays. Turns out I got heartburn. Cost me a 110 dollars. Now I'm furious. I run to Eggs' mother, and I say "Did he suffer much?" And she said: "No, it was quick. Car hit him and that was it."
