An old fellow named Jim is having memory troubles and goes to the doctor and the doctor prescribes him medicine.
Jim's friend comes over to his house and says, "Jim I understand you got some medicine for your memory. Tell me, does it work?"
"Oh yes", says Jim. "Works like a charm."
"Well I'd like to get some of that medicine for myself. What's the name of it?"
"Oh the name of it....", says Jim. "I can't remember. What's the name of that flower?"
"Oh I don't know" says Jim's friend. There's so many. Is it a tulip?"
"No. It's that flower you take on a date with a woman."
"Oh is it a carnation?"
"No, no. It's the romantic one. It's red, and long stemmed."
"Oh you must mean a rose!"
"Yes that's it", says Jim. "ROSE WHAT WAS THE NAME OF THAT MEDICINE THE DOCTOR GAVE ME FOR MY MEMORY?"

Because it's pretty funny, if so.
