The Harley mechanic was removing a cylinder-head from the motor
of a Harley motorcycle when he spotted a well-known cardiologist in his shop.

The cardiologist was there waiting for the service manager to
come take a look at his bike when the mechanic shouted across the garage "Hey
Doc, want to take a look at this?"

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 open 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 - a pretty small salary - and
you get the really big bucks, $1,695,759, when you and I are doing basically the same work?"

The cardiologist paused, smiled and leaned over and said to the
mechanic, "Try doing it with the engine running."
