Re: A Thread for Random Musings
And now for a Totally Gross Joke, passed to me by my Dad:
On the first day of Medical School, the Anatomy class was gathered around a cadaver.
The Professor began by saying:
"There are two important qualities you must have as a Doctor. First, you must not be squeemish about anything having to do with the Human Body."
Whereupon the Professor stuck his finger in the cadaver's rectum, and then stuck his finger in his mouth.
"Now all of you must do this", he said.
The class blanched, freaked out, but they all wanted to be Doctors, so they dutifully filed past and stuck their fingers into the cadaver's rectum, then into their mouths.
When all had done so, the Professor said:
"The second quality a Doctor must have is good powers of observation.
I stuck my INDEX finger into the body, but put my MIDDLE finger into my mouth. Learn to pay attention."
