Default What's up Doc?

I always remember an engineering school class I attended as a young apprentice in the aviation industry. The instructor was an old grizzled power plant engineer and one of the observations he made was that, "The difference between you blokes and doctors is that a doctor's mistakes are quickly buried, in your case someone is going to come back and demand to know; Why?"
I am not in awe of the medical profession, after my triple bypass I thanked the surgeon for the nifty plumbing job and told him to send me the bill like I would any other tradesman. He was a real nice guy and took it with a grin as I intended.
