I gave a test today. Ignoring that most of them failed it (and it was on cardio so...) here's the best response I've seen so far. The question is This is a sex-linked recessive disorder with a defect in factor VIII that causes uncontrollable bleeding.__________________

I'll let you guess the answer. Her response? 'Menstrual bleeding.' I'm still laughing and weeping

There's been a lot happening at work but it's not the stuff that should be in a blog, locked or otherwise. Yikes, craziness.

So Booze Report - Hobgoblin, I think the UK makes some of the best beer, period. This was no exception, a darker ale but not full on stout, a touch bitter just like it should be.

And tonight we went to the winery which now is turning its hand to brewing beer. After spending quality time being mobbed by Nikki the Mastiff,we tested the three beers, the Black Lager, the Imperial lager and the IPA. I'm not really a fan of IPA's. As far as they go, this was good but eh. The black beer was good, a nice coffee/chocolate finish but surprisingly the Imperial ale was my favorite. It was sweetish, almost fruity. I could have drank the pitcher and slept it off in Nikki's dog house.

Adopt one today!

Try not to sleep it off in Nikki's doghouse. She might need it to sleep in, herself. :D

Okay, I should be in medicine, because I can pass your tests having taken nothing more complex than high-school biology. Okay, I read medical books as a child. But even so!

Mmmm...winery!

wonder if I can start claiming some of you as relatives and get you discounted retraining. I'd love to have more than 2-4 smart people in class

o.0 Okay... I'm no med-student, but isn't the correct answer, "What is hemophilia?" o.0

And these students are our future doctors & nurses? Should I be afraid...? Very afraid? XD

I know nothing about beer, except dad used to make it when I was little and it always had this awful smell when he boiled whatever it was in a big pot that mom refused to clean. I also don't like the taste of it at all... ^^;

you are right. Luckily these are just the future nurses/ultrasound/resp or occupational therapy techs. The future doctors all are over the 90% mark (thank god)

hahaha I love the smell of beer (and obviously the taste)

YAY! :D That's good!! Thank goodness they scored better.

XD I'd rather drink wine, or have a mixed drink.

I know next to nothing about medicine or the like but I still knew the correct answer was hemophilia!

I mean seriously people! Oy.
