Ah tbret. I am a general practitioner. That means I know precisely nothing about absolutely everything, or maybe absolutely nothing about precisely everything. Or something like that. If you can't riff the BS then you won't last long. But here's the trade secrets to totally crush your spirit :
- use Latin if you know it, that keeps the understanding threshold nice and high. Dermatologists have thousands of phrases to describe red, sore and itchy spots. They all wind up getting a steroid applied. Ointment or Cream is the Big Decision that keeps everyone guessing. However that is, like a magician's trick, merely a distraction to avoid real scrutiny ie. not alot is actually happening. Throw in the words 'fungal' and 'bacterial' occasionally and wham ! Big bucks. No night calls. Can't even spell 'litigation'.
- obstetrics is for those that can spell litigation. It would help if you enjoyed court appearances.
- gynaecology is for those that didn't enjoy their court appearances.
- a good doctor times his treatment to coincide with recovery. Most people think post hoc ergo propter hoc ie. it came after therefore was caused by. See how cool Latin can be ? Medieval logic thrives out there in the 'burbs. So if she weighs as much as a duck, she must be a witch etc.
- if touching people gives you the willies, or even conversing with them, then anaesthesia is the go. The nurse gives the pre-med, so they are nearly unconscious by the time you are in the groove. No challenging questions or behaviours. Plenty of interesting electronics to play with. You can poke faces at the patients when they are under if you want.
- alternatively radiology is also for the socially challenged. The radiographers do all the work with taking the happy snaps. You can just sit in a room, look at a screen, drink nice cappuccino, smoke both all & whatever you want and merely talk to the dicta-phone. But remember to never take any calls from real doctors.
- the stethoscope is the status symbol. Forget the fancy cars, bow ties and arriving at parties by helicopter. The Scope is where it's at. We call them 'guessing tubes' but the rest of the world thinks it's a magic wand aka Harry Potter.
- 'away at a conference' is code for Holiday In The Bahamas, typically paid for by errr .... companies concerned that you have appreciated the true value of certain manufactured goods. Have no morals here. The pensioners will pay for it through higher drug costs. They don't mind at all, because they don't know any better. As ignorance is surely bliss why spread unhappiness, eh ?
- cosmetic surgery is for those that always found the eggs at Easter. You must memorise all currency denominations by age 11 and ideally have pick-pocketing skills prior to med-school entry. Just keep honing from there.
- never dis the neurosurgeons. One day they may hold anything from your brain down to your backside in their hands. It's your call, but I'm just sayin' ....
- never dis the bowel guys. This is self evident.
- please yourself with pathologists. If you ever meet them then you won't be minding anything whatsoever by then.
- if you are into jumping out of perfectly good aeroplanes, riding pushbikes while wearing Lycra during heavy traffic, taking amphetamines while cruising on your Honda Fireblade or just setting yourself on fire for the attention it draws then : Emergency Department work is for you. Usually you will not notice any change of pace between your work and leisure hours. Expect to die before thirty-five though.
- psychiatry is best entered into by those who are already mad. Saves time.
- paediatrics is for those that haven't grown up and never want to. Kids are fun. Chaos is your BFF. Do not annoy the Mother Bears though. One paw slash and your guts just erupt into the environment.
I thought there was a glaring omission in your manoeuvrings... because if I had a tilty-backy swivelly chair that I could bash all my topal lobes with... anomalous tilting upsettisodes would be the very first thing I'd mention...
Yep, I always knew it, you're a long lost relative of Stanley Unwin! Deep Joy, oh yes!

Since I don't know of any other physicists, let me throw out a few random names and see if I at least tickle Annie's fancy:
Cookie Monster
Dr. Joel Iforgethislastname from Northern Exposure
Sylvester McCoy
Leonard McCoy
Khloe Kardashian (the Kardshian I least detest)
It has taken me the better part of an hour to read what has been written here since my own last submission yesterday. You idiots are just too damned entertaining.

Patiently waiting for the asteroid with my name on it.
Firstly...
tbret :) Hi... It's good news :) You were right to suspect that you were wrong. Dr. Maura McLaughlin is wrong. There is no other way of putting it :) The bad news is that you're overall, in the right field. That's the one with the hole in it... which leaves you all looking for an... [insert type of physicist here] who may or may not have strayed a bit... :)
Secondly...
Now that everyone's floundering nicely in what Mike has called "a burgeoning morass" ... and given the risk that you might all be trampled underfoot by a surprisingly large variety of wildlife that has accumulated within it*... I have decided to run them all through the "Dross or Notticator" and these are what we have left: Both elephants (which surprised me a little... but then I remembered our "go west" project from which we have heard nothing... perhaps I should have advised they fit some form of navigational equipment to their flotation devices...? but let's not dwell on regrets :)
The oxen;
The wavy parts of the wavy sheep;
A porcellanidae gigantica;
And Shaun (who has inadvertently got himself stuck in quarantine).
All other non human types can be freely disregarded - this means you will not be charged... or, if you prefer, they can be regarded in as suspicious a manner as you wish. For they are all "Dross" although only in the context of this current puzzle. Should anyone even attempt to tell me that any animal is dross, they will have to put up with one of these ---> *demonstration of anniet glare* See... that wasn't at all nice was it? No :)
Thirdly...
We have a long sentence :) Some of you may remember it... others may have tried to forget... and all of you probably agree that this whole thread has turned into one - from which a reprieve or appeal is all you now dream about... interspersed with nightmares of Mike giving you counselling in his special disappear under the table chair. So perhaps some sifting, would help :) and I'll throw in a bit of Archive cross referencing that may have passed by your whiskers, or gone straight over the top of your main brain bendy bone :)

Now whether Mike had picked up anything from it who knows, but he did pop in for a chat about having a bomb named after him. To which I made some illuminations that were intended to help you as you floundered along in your abject confusion and dare I say, misery :) Oh... I'm sorry... I tried to put one of these ----> :( after misery but I seem unable to do so :)))
So... lets get pertinent :)

So are all bombs given names? Or just the really big flattening ones with a mushroom on top? (Is what I said...)

Oh... and just BTW... you might be interested to know that my abovely's are very similarly structured to my original belowly's :) apart from what happened to the fourthly of course :) and IF I'm feeling VERY kind... :) I might even give you a hand with this in my next post...

Things fall apart never quite how I expect them to and this was ably demonstrated by Mike when he began chasing woolly jumpers in the hope he could help me get them back on my knitting needles. With everything unravelling nicely around me, I was able to relax with a good (albeit sad) end of times book and reflect on where it got its already 19 year old name from when it was new, sandwiched as it was between what Dr Melfi said 46 years later.
Of course, in the meantime, you can remove the woolly jumpers :)
