"Maybe I'll get braces for my 50th birthday"

By then, you'll probably be able to generate the plastic pieces at home for a fraction of the cost. Look at what has happened to the film-processing industry.

no - that idiot's hash is well settled.

this is an ER physician who, this morning, seemed to think it was meet to read the funny papers rather than come and stabilize a patient I had transported from the clinic to the ER - which patient was rapidly and obviously slipping into systemic shock.

One of the problems at that ER is the undeniable truth of life as stated by a friend I have in Massachusetts:

"When every call is an emergency, none of them are."

Granted that he was in tech support, but the principle remains. It's just like being a driver -- you need occasional breaks to stay alert.

The problem seems to be the system of permitting breaks at the ER. If the Physician is not allowed any down-time from emergency reaction status, his human limitations take over.

But I also agree that it was not only unprofessional, but bordering on criminal negligence.

Just about as usual -- deliriously marvelous.

Perfect weather, chores to ignore, pets somnolent, house empty ... Who could ask for anything more?

when on the clock, one is to WORK.
when an on-duty physician, one MUST attend to patients IMMEDIATELY.
when told by ME "this guy is going into shock" one jumps to maximum attainable elevation at warp f[beep!]ing nine.

Ah, okay. I stand corrected. Go with 'Face's plan.

An English teacher was instructing the class on the four main parts of every good short story. On the whiteboard, the teacher listed them:

1) Religion
2) Royalty
3) Sex
4) Mystery

At the end of the class, the assignment was to write a short story over the weekend, making sure it contained all four parts.

Monday morning, the class was assembled and the teacher asked if anyone had been able to complete the assignment. The infamous Johnny raised his hand, and dubiously, the teacher asked him to stand and read the story to the class.

“Holy Moses!” said the Princess. “Pregnant again! (I wonder who it was?)”

The police arrived and found a man dead on his living room floor with
a golf club next to his body.

They asked the woman, "Is this your husband?"

"Yes," she replied.

"Did you kill him?"

"Yes", she replied.

"It looks like you struck him eight times with this 3 iron. Is that correct?"

"Yes", she replied, "...but put me down for a five."

Golf jokes?


Two golfers were working their way through the back nine, in the face of an increasingly inclement day.

Holding onto his hat while he waited for a lull in the brisk wind before he could tee off, one golfer turned to the other.

"Can you imagine? There are people who go out fishing in weather like this!"

LOL! There's a fine line between fishing and standing on the shore looking like an idiot!

Moses, Jesus, and another guy were out playing golf one day. Moses
pulled up to the tee and drove a long one. It landed in the fairway but
rolled directly toward a water trap. Quickly Moses raised his club, the
water parted and it rolled to the other side safe and sound.

Next, Jesus strolls up to the tee and hits a nice long one directly toward
the same water trap. It landed directly in the center of the pond and kind
of hovered over the water. Jesus casually walked out on the pond and
chipped it up onto the green.

The third guy gets up and sort of randomly whacks the ball. It heads out
over the fence and into oncoming traffic on a nearby street. It bounces
off a truck and hits a nearby tree. From there it bounces onto the roof
of a nearby shack and rolls down into the gutter, down the downspout, out
onto the fairway and right toward the aforementioned pond.

On the way to the pond, it hits a little stone and bounces out over the
water and onto a lily pad where it rested quietly. Suddenly, a very large
bullfrog jumped up on the lily pad and snatched the ball into his mouth.
Just then, an eagle swooped down and grabbed the frog and flew away. As
they passed over the green, the frog squealed with fright and dropped the
ball which bounced right into the hole for a beautiful hole in one.

Moses then turned to Jesus and said, "I hate playing with your Dad."

Two guys were playing golf one day, and came upon a twosome of ladies.

The guys figured they could play faster then the ladies, so they decided to ask if they could play through.

One started walking toward the ladies to make the request, and then he stopped and returned.

“What’s wrong?”

“I’ll tell you what’s wrong! When I got closer, I realized that one of those ladies is my girlfriend, and the other is my wife! I can’t go up and talk to them together!”

“O-o-okay, let’s do this. I’ll go talk to them, and then we’ll just play through real quick, and you won’t have to talk to them.”

He started walking toward the ladies. Then he turned around and came back also.

“Now what’s wrong?” His friend inquired.

“Well ... let’s just say it’s a small world.”
