Laryngites !

Santa walked into a ice cream parlor and whispered: "Can I have an ice cream ?"
"Certainly you may," said the shop assistant. "What flavour would you like, vanilla, chocolate or strawberry ?"
"I`ll have strawberry,please," Santa whispered.
"And what about topping, chocolate?"
"Chocolate will be fine," Santa whispered.
"Crushed nuts ?" asked the shop assistant.
"No," the bloke whispered, "Laryngites."
