Come on, I hadn't even had a Diet Coke yet

While reviewing notes on patients coming in today, I discovered the following in a hospital discharge summary:

"The patient was seen by Dr. Grumpy. He was confused, incontinent, and hallucinating at the time."

    (Minus the incontinent part).

  12. Wow, and the guy still gives you consults? You must be incredible.

  13. Dr. Grumpy only gets consults because he accepts HMOs. Now the secret's out.

    Hilarious dangling participle, by the way :)
