#8 Boy, this hospital food is great!

#7 Is that a pill or a golf ball?

#6 You want me to fill that container all the way to the top?

#5 Salt! Salt! Who's got the salt?

#4 Let me just have a little taste of that.

#3 Oooh, that feels so good.

#2 Bend over? Why?

And the #1 remark overheard in Uncle Jim's hospital room:
