Hey, I just noticed, that surgeon's a lefty. How common is THAT? I thought Lefties tended to be the more artsy / creative types, not the kind to put up w/ years of abuse that med school / surgical residency requires? Then again, I'm probably totally talking out of my ass here...

Deja vu...that strange feeling you sometimes get that you've lived through something before...It's The Mind.

@Shayne- If I was a surgeon, that's how I'd start every operation.

@Stan da Man- Actually, many doctors are left-handed. That's why the writing on prescriptions is impossible to read.

@Old Fort Howard Guy- I think your "Deja vu" remark was in reference to Stan da Man's comment showing up four times in a row (before I did a little custodial work). I'd like to think that he hit "send" four times by accident because he was laughing uncontrollably. Or maybe because he's left-handed (grin).

That's inconceivable!

Stilton Jarlsberg said...

@Dan- I do not think this punchline means what you think it means...

Glenn B said...

LOL, that was great!

Dan Mathewson said...

Stilton,
Do you mean that it's not a reference to The Princess Bride?

Chuck said...

Awesome. I love that movie.

@Old Fort Howard Guy - didn't you just say that?

... As you wish ...

@Dan- It's definitely a reference to the Princess Bride...as was my joke that "I do not think it means what you think it means," which is what Inigo Montoya said of the oft-repeated word "inconceivable."

@Chuck- I thought Peter Falk (as Grandpa) saying "As you wish" at the end was perfect and heartwarming.
