Summary: Scully delivers triplets.

Note: This is another in my series of short humor stories which are based on jokes I've been told, read on the humor newsgroups, or from my huge collection of joke books.

Scully was staying at a motel in the back woods of Arkansas, The motel owner's wife went into labor in the middle of the night, during a blackout, and as Scully was the only doctor for miles, she was called upon to assist in the delivery.

To keep the nervous father-to-be busy, Scully handed him a lantern and said, "Here, you hold this high so I can see what I'm doing."

Soon, a baby boy was brought into the world.

"Hold on, Sir," said Scully. "Don't be in a rush to put the lantern down... I think there's yet another one to come."

Sure enough, within minutes she had delivered a baby girl.

"No, no, don't be in a great hurry to be putting down that lantern, sir...It seems there's yet another one besides!" cried Scully.

The motel owner scratched his head in bewilderment, and asked Scully. "Do you think it's the light that's attracting them?"
