a little bit of looney fun

The Wall Street Journal Health blog had a little fun this morning http://blogs.wsj.com/health/2007/12/07/hospital-casting-call-st-looney-tunes/. The blog points readers to another health blog Aggravated DocSurg who has a little fun casting the usual characters found in a hospital as Looney Tunes characters. http://docsurg.blogspot.com/. Sometimes the best thing you can do is have a sense of humor.

For the record, I am not a doctor, but I feel like Sylvester at the Looney Tune hospital.

No one can use a laugh more than residents

With the exception of nurses, residents seem to be the most over-worked and under-appreciated members of the hospital staff. But you have to have a sense of humor about such things and that's what Dr. Jordan Safirstein brings in his web site stoppagingme.com. He started the web site when he was a resident and is now a fellow, so he is still championing the resident and student cause. Features include celebrity illness, hospital fashions, and my favorite, the top 5 list http://www.stoppagingme.com/top_five_list.php. Check it out.
