"Hey, you want to land in jail for Valentine's Day?"
Technology
Mr. Bag: "Yeah, I had a bad infection down there. They had to filet my scrotum to clean it out."
Dr. Grumpy: "That sounds awful."
Mr. Bag: (whips out phone) "Here's a picture."

More hairs jump off
Mrs. Helpful: "My sister did."
Dr. Grumpy: How old was she when she developed it?"
Mrs. Helpful: "She died when she was 38, in a car accident."
Dr. Grumpy: "But how old was she when she developed Hufnagel's Syndrome?"
Mrs. Helpful: "Well, she actually didn't have it. But if she'd lived, I'm sure she'd have gotten it in her 50's"

No! Really?
Mrs. Obvious: "It was before he died."
Love and Rodents
It featured this mouth-watering item:

I think we'll just stay home. It's supposed to snow, anyway.

Election 2012
Now, admittedly, my entire campaign thus far is based on one issue, but yesterday while attending a 9-year-old girl's birthday party with my kids, I came up with a second point.
While I strongly support freedom of expression, I also believe some times are better than others to express your beliefs.
So, if elected President, I promise you this:
Any father who shows up at his 9-year daughter's birthday party wearing a T-shirt that says "IT AIN'T GONNA SUCK ITSELF" with an arrow pointing downwards, will be immediately castrated by specially trained fashion police.
Vote Grumpy, 2012!

Random Saturday pictures
First is this plan posted at a hospital. I think it's particularly important, because when you have to urgently "evacuate" it's good to know where the bathrooms are.

Next is this insanity. When "artisanal" or "handcrafted" aren't enough, they have to pay someone to think of better names. Because just calling it "moisturizer" or "hand lotion" is boring.

On the other hand, it also opens up the possibility of Mrs. Grumpy telling me "Not tonight, honey. Why don't you just rub yourself with some Happy Sensation instead?"
And last, we have this bit of hyperbole from a medical marketing company. Instead of a network or panel of doctors, they have an "organically grown community" of them. Whatever that means.

Take 2
Mr. Rerun: "Yeah, I didn't think you were that good. But my friend saw you last month, and liked you, so I thought maybe you'd gotten better and came back."

Mr. Jeopardy: "Down on 3rd street there's an MRI place. It's right across from the Jewish church."
Mary's desk
Mary: "Hi, can I get a copy of your insurance card?"
Mr. Card: "I don't have it here. But you said on the phone that you take my insurance."
Mary: "I'm sure we do, but we need a copy of your card to bill."
Mr. Card: "Well, I don't have it. It's Medicare, or maybe Blue Cross. Actually, it could be United. Anyway, it's one of those insurance companies."
Mary: "Okay, but without your card there's a chance you'll end up paying cash for today's visit."
Mr. Card: "I can't afford that. Maybe it's down in my car."
(leaves, 10 minutes go by, comes back)
Mary: "Hi, did you find your card?"
Mr. Card: "No, but I have the info here."
He hands Mary a crumpled McDonald's receipt, with grease stains and an order for 2 Big Macs and fries. On the back he'd scribbled "37642AKT047, expires 7."
Mary: "Do you know what insurance company this is with?"
Mr. Card: "No, but it's one of the big ones. Can't you look it up on the internet?"
Mary: "Sir, we can't accept this in place of an insurance card."
Mr. Card: "Doctors just don't care about people any more."
Leaves.
