Does it smell like victory?

While we're sharing awkward moments from school: I can tell you about my son when he was six y/o. It happened during a school play. All of a sudden he took his hat off, said I don't feel well, turned around and threw up in the hat.
Aww, those memories...

Well, not quite. It was an intriguing smell when I sat in on an operation once while doing work experience, though. |

No. But hip replacements involve burning some of the flesh with what is effectively a soldering iron.

They ligate larger vessels with sutures but they use cautery to stop the bleeding from small vessels.

^ What she said.
Anyway, hip replacements are just a cross between butchery and carpentry. So crude. |

The smell during autopsy is also special. In between highschool and uni I worked a year as a char-woman at a hospital. I cleaned the morgue for a couple of weeks and got to see (among a lot of interesting things) an autospy.

When threads die, their spirits float up into a big furnace and turn into talking weasels

Mind you, with my lack of bedside manner, I'd almost certainly make an atrocious doctor . Oh, and I've never sat in on an autopsy, but I did see a freshly dead body. They get this strange kind of waxy effect, which makes it all a bit surreal. The closest I've come to autopsy is in watching the great Gunther von Hagen (he of the crazy hat) at work on some television programmes. I'm the kind of person who loves watching that kind of thing. |

I always wanted to work a nightshift at a mourg(sp?) so I could pose all the bodies when I was heading out. Then the guy working the day shift would come in and be like wtf?

Yeah. He was a Footlights member, IIRC.

Perhaps you should model yourself on Quince (ME) instead. Less need for a bedside manner and it caters to your interests.
