I just wanna know how LemonMan does that for a living!! How can a person touch something so gross as innards every day? My DH had to get a colonwhatever the other day in outpatient surgery. It was done by a GI doctor and there were several other patients there for the same treatment. I was thinking to myself that no amount of money could motivate me to check out people's BUTTs all day for a living! YUCK!! How could someone do that for a living??

bah ha ha bah!!! I nearly had a bowel movement laughing at that one. I better get my rectum checked by Dr. Jellyfinger of Seymour Butts & Holden A. Jellyfinger, P.C.. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

MD -----> Hope your husband is all right. If he needs a suppository you could have some fun switching it out with a secrets lozenge...cherry flavor or some Halls Menthalyptus (sp?). On the other hand, I am no doctor and a newbie at giving advice so maybe just ice will do for now.

And those of us who AREN'T so well-endowed will put on a Wonder Bra and then say, "Wow! I Wonder where *those* came from!"

Now Mellybelly, I do believe "ya silly yooper" would be a label...and labels just aren't nice.

Does "nice" mean anything to you crazy Texans????...or not.

And Mulan, yes Wonderbras are wonderful...but there does come a time when one must take them off. And then kerplunky!...and they ain't so wonderful.

...and I'm not saying I have that kerplunky problem...or not. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

And Mel just so you know, kerplunky IS a word... and it's not a label.

I'd love to join your little gang but, sadly, I haven't a clue on a few things. In HK, a Dove bar is a bar of soap; what is a Trojan and why on earth would anyone who is well-endowed wear a Wonderbra? Aren't they for the ones who need help? TT

LEMONMAN..
Is tall and thin with a strong jaw...goatee....
baggy scrubs...
and if he could would play SALSA music while performing brain surgery clipping arteries he would or does.........

SEE it's ALL good!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


ARK^^

Ark:

Hmmmm...must be your "RN sense"...you get probably a B+ for your guess. I am 6 feet 2 inches, 180 pounds (don't like to think of myself as thin, and for the amount of running I do, you'd think I would be "waifier"---must be all the designer protein I drink.. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/pfft.gif" alt="" />. I have worn a goatee at times, but to be honest it just is "not me"..I am probably a little more preppy than you imagine. I do have a sharp jaw line, and have been accussed of being "too young" to be a doctor. I am 36, and people think I am a student. It is kind of funny actually. I stay clean shaven most of the time, and just have a "baby face". Baggy scrubs was also a nice call...I wear them at least 1 to 2 sizes too big, and with 2 pagers and a cell phone clipped to the scrubs, I have been known to show off my undies as my scrubes hang off my A$$.....LOL. I think in general your perception of me was definitely ball park. I am very relaxed in the OR and will NOT start a case unless I have some tunes going. It is my tradition to let the head Scrub nurse choose the tunes to start off the day. Some of my surgeries are done at night, and in stressful situations, but the tunes still must go on. We have a collection of over 200 CD's in the OR suite, and I am known to hate country....BUT if selected by the Head RN, Country it is. Honestly, what you see is what you get here. At heart, I am probably a simpleton.

I am sometimes hard on my residents, and I will kick any of them out of the OR if they don't show the utmost respect to my patients. I am very protective of my patients...probably to a fault, and am extremely compulsive in the OR, but I keep it "light". I can count on one hand the number of times that I have screamed in the OR or have been inappropiately rude with staff. Where I did my General Surgery training, we used to be "dressed down" daily by attendings and get what we called A$$ Whippings by senior faculty. It was a big game to humiliate us as much as possible, yet NOT make us quit. I learned very early on in my training that people usually don't function at their peak when they are being screamed at, or are afraid to make a mistake. You learn when you are the one who will go down as "attending of record" you don't f*** around with peoples lifes. Playing "Salsa" is more my style, and usually allows people to ease up just a bit yet still work to their max potential. If I can take a sarcastic shot at a colleague (MD, RN, student)...I will, but I demand that if given the chance to do the same, they will also. I dish it out, but defintely take it also. I don't make trainee nurses nervous, and I let my residents "flog" as long as they need to..to learn (as long as the patient is not compromised).

OK, I have rambled on. I think most people have me "figured" out here. I like to bark alot, but honestly, I am pretty much a softie.

I think he must look young, perhaps even baby-faced, but with dark circles under his eyes. I always picture him as sounding like that one Dr. from Scrubs with the curly hair, long thin face, and blue eyes, who is always so cynical and sarcastic, yet hilarious.

I think LM is often that way at work, but tries to tone it down a little here so as not to hurt already bruised feelings.

Or I could be wrong. Who knows?

I've always thought of him more as the doctor from House. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

BTW, I really like the show and the doctor cracks me up!!

Psst TT, (weaver don't really wear a Wonderbra, but Mulan does. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />)

Lemon,

That was really nice of you to share yourself with us like that. I think you are right and everyone here really does know what a good person you truly are.

I just wanna know how LemonMan does that for a living!! How can a person touch something so gross as innards every day?

Ms Lane:

Well, to the everyday nonmedical layperson, I can definitely see your point. I deal with "innards" alot, and usually am elbows deep in "colon" when a person has to go to the OR. I love human anatomy, and as a medical student was really into dissecting the human cadaver. I can see how people can think it is gross (and for the record, the colon usually smells.... <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />---there is no worse smell than Melena (bloddy diarrhea)...but when you get a chance to see anatomy in the flesh and put it all together it is awesome. Yeah, I am probably a little twisted to do what I do. You have to be. Right now, I am on call for the weekend, and will be in this hospital from now untill late Sunday night. As I speak to you now, there is some derelict A-hole who is at the local watering hole drinking his paycheck away and will probably drive drunk, hit a telephone pole and come in needing his spleen removed, or his aorta put back together....."it is all good".....I don't ofcourse wish for these things to happen, but if they are gonna happen, might as well be when I am on call. I am hungry for a "case" of dealing with innards.

You don't do what I do and not be a little "weird", but outside of the usual dysfunctions of a doctor who doesn't sleep enough and drinks too much coffee, I am ok. Not that much off kilter.

I say that I have the best job in the world. I love what I do (admittedly, I am probably a work-a-holic) and get paid very well to do it. Dealing with "innards" pays well you know... <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
