Later I was working in the ER when a young man came in. He had been riding in the rear of a pickup truck. It was a warm summer night. As the wind blew in his hair a June Bug must have hit just right and went into external acoustic meatus. Now a June Bug is a beetle with a rather hard exoskeleton. The bug wallowed around inside his ear for a long time until he got to the ER. He was screaming like a baby. He said the noise was so loud he could not stand it. Anyway I got some forceps and was able to grab the insect. But he was dug in. So, I had to morsellate the creature, then lavage it from the canal. He seemed grateful after his ordeal.
Two words I have never seen in print, and I'm an old geezer.
Now I have to figure out how to drop those words in a Political discussion.
As in, I hope we can “morsellate” Obama and “lavage” him from the Presidency. LOL Apparently, FR Spell Check doesn't do "morsellate", but what the heck do I know? I was a Banker, not a Doctor.
