    Ha! You stole my thunder!

    Here’s my interesting surprise on the trauma scout film.

    Oh well. My occult foriegn body was under the waistband. Where was yours? The armpit?

    Shirt pocket.

    It appears the physical exam is indeed a dying art.

    And, for the record, yours still gets the thunder, but mine gets the lightning. Pun intended.
