Med School
First-year students at Med School were receiving
their first anatomy class with a real dead human
body. They all gathered around the surgery table
with the body covered with a white sheet.
The professor started the class by telling them, "In
medicine, it is necessary to have 2 important
qualities as a doctor: The first is that you not be
disgusted by anything involving the human body." For
an example, the Professor pulled back the sheet,
stuck his finger in the butt of the corpse,withdrew
it and stuck his finger in his mouth. "Go ahead and
do the same thing," he told his students.
The students freaked out, hesitated for several
minutes, but eventually took turns sticking a finger
in the butt of the dead body and sucking on it.
When everyone finished, the Professor looked at them
and told them, "The second most important quality
is observation. I stuck in my middle finger and
sucked on my index finger. Now learn to pay
attention."

but on what is right." ~ Ivan Howes
