Question for the people working in the medical field:
Why do I need to buy a pupil gauge penlight when I already have a laser-pointer? And I already hooked my Littman stethoscope up to my iPod. Groovy. Sounds like a Theremin.

Okay, okay, I just watched eight seasons of 'Scrubs' althogether over the last few weeks.

Anyone want to have a free physical? I have some Aspirin! And I promise my stethoscope won't be cold! :woohoo:

Yours truly,
Call Me Wesley M. D.

1. If you really promise it won't be cold.
You see ~ it's like this ... I'm having a little problem with my glucose levels.

Have three Margaritas, and it should be a-okay! If you have a cup holder in your car, you won't even spill some. ;)

:hug: As always, glad to see you! Save travels!

6. Three ?
I know I'm cleared to have one (but I like your prescription better) only not in my car.



I'm still hanging around at home until the end of this month when I expect to be back in Texas for at least two huge short escorts.












:hide:
DOT would yank my CDL over a cup holder filled with Margaritas.

Safety is my middle name these days. Who woulda thunk it would come to this.

:loveya::hug:

8. I'll write you a prescription.
I promise to use the Latin name for 'Margaritas.'

3 2000mg Extractum Margaritae/SIC per day.

3. I'm more concerned about that stethoscope BEING warm.
Why would it be warm when all others are always cold? :shrug:

4. Because,
I keep it in my 'special place.' You have a problem with that? I care about patients. I don't know what kind of doctors you're seeing. Did you catch them gluing the embossed seal on their printed out degree?

See? :rofl:

9. If someone comes in with an earache and needs an ear lavage...
Be sure to use ice water. It perks them right up. Of course they are also contorted on the floor puking and confessing to the Lindberg kidnapping, but it gets their mind off their earache.
