Don't take it all so seriously, Doc. I'm merely trying to generate a few laughs
(or at least smiles) out of a serious subject.

a B in Gross Anatomy, but after 6 months in Iraq in 91, I was able to

the unit.

This comes under the category of information that I'd really rather
not have.

(Gross Anatomy? Really?)

You think Gross Anatomy is gross? If you knew anybody involved in health
care, you'd know that Gross Anatomy is merely the doorknob to the world of
gross!

You guys are using the wrong definition of gross. Gross as "in the main" is
what the schools mean. The subject is very exciting and probably more
practical than
the damn cats and frogs we disected in high school. My problem in medical
school was that I just wasn't ready to memorize all that crap. It was too
much information, too fast. Alas, I survived...(hint: everything comes in
threes...)

It's really much, much worse (depending on how you look at it) once you get
into it! You think I'm exaggerating? Just ask anyone involved in the
medical professions for the straight poop.....it'll invariably be a lot
straighter and
far more poopy than anything you ever wanted to hear. (^_^)))

When your surgeon says he's going to remove your colon, then you better hope
he doesn't find the subject "poopy." :-)
