BS: we vaporized him

Subject: BS: we vaporized him
From: olddude

Had an appointment today with my Dr buddie. He was going through his file and found this letter. Well about a year or so ago Russ ordered a CT scan on my neck to check the implanted rods and bolts etc. I waited so long in the little room that I got ticked off and left. My doc buddie received this letter:

Dear Dr. xxxx

In regard to your patient Dan, we brought him in from the waiting room and had him change into the hospital gown for the CT Scan that you ordered. Upon our return, all we found was the hospital gown piled in the middle of the floor and no Dan.

Please accept our sincere apologies for we fear we may have inadvertently vaporized him.

Kind Regard
Dr. YYYYY

Radiologist

As someone who works in Radiology I'm glad that at least SOME of them have a sense of humor :-)

Dan, where are you? Are you vaporized? Man, the doctors said so. Can people see you now?

The correct reply from your Dr buddie to the hospital is surely

"Thank you for your letter. I am confident that vaporisation was not the cause since it is usually very fast."

I don;t get why you were walking around in a hospital gown with your tush showing, assuming you had the opening in the back. Was it Friday night?

Their conclusion was conceivably correct, but too hasty. A little investigation should have revealed the truth before they sent out the letter.

Inefficiency is everywhere.

9... I ain't too keen on the arse hangin out pic but if that what it takes to keep Dan around, well, I'll just close my eyes any time you post any more pics.

Yes, I know that didn't make any sense. Is it necessary? On accounta I can go elsewhere and make even less sense. You let me know eh.

I went into a neurologist for a consultation about some bad leg cramps I was having. He gave me a good check-over, and wrote in his response to my doctor that he had ruled out, among other things, demonic possession.

Gnu first: that was to demonstrate the following. Do you know why yer arse is split north/south? It's so you don't go pffffffffffffffffffftttt when you slide down banisters.

Dan: those gowns amaze me, too. But there is method to their madness, else where would real-life pics of people's arses come from if not hospital corridors? Ah? Ah?

On a serious note, what's up with your neck?

Neck is ok now, it was hurting and my hands kept going numb about a year ago .. heck it cleared up without the CT scan :-)

Today was just a general check up to make sure everything is working ..

If you can knock on your wood maybe you aren't so old after all...

I thought this would be a Bobert thread--something to do with nifty gadgets like these.

I am reminded of them taking forever to attempt to Xray my kids' dad's head when we thought he had meningitis and heard one tech say to the other We had to turn it up to Nuclear Annihilate to get through THIS guy's skull (he did have extra-dense bones...) and then kinda turn pale when he realized I'd heard him...
