I’m starting to explore some of the other Edublogs. I ran across this Youtube clip posted at one of the other blogs. I have no clue who may actually be reading this at the moment, but at least I’ll be able to find it again if I post it here.
To give credit where credit is due, the blog I found this clip at: http://tama.edublogs.org/2007/10/13/a-vision-of-students-today/
The StreetDoc sliced my left arm open longway with the magnetic scalpel . The look on her face told me she was getting pissed when nothing happened. Making sure my forearm was locked into place with the surgical vise she takes a smaller vice and places it on my wrist and starts screwing it down. This isn’t my first time on the surgery slab so I just relax. Eventually my forearm splits open showing the chrome underneath my synthderm.
“Why the hell doesn’t your arm respond to the magscalpel? Every damn time I have to put the squeeze on your wrist to get at the core. One of these times I’m just going to saw it off.”
“Like I have a clue, Doc. When I can afford to replace it, I will, but until then keep your saw away from my arm. Without this arm there’s no way I can keep myself in gourmet kibble.”
The Doc snorts as she plugs my arm into the diagnostics. After a few minutes she nods her head at the squiggles on the readout as though they make sense and unplugs me. My arm may not open easily, but closing it up isn’t a problem. A quick spray of dermglue seals the skin back up. I slot my creds as I get up off the slab.
“Gomen, Doc. Good to know everything checks out. Later.”
“Dena Hoss.“
Managed to get everything taken care of this morning. At least I hope I did. I’m not too sure about a part of one of the assigments, but I’m not going to worry about it any more this afternoon. There is very important work to be done that I need to get to as I have meetings out of town tomorrow. Hopefully I’ll be back soon enough to get my check and hang at the KAC for a bit to judge their Challenge games.
Sally forth! Compose those memos! Slay the fiend that is Fax!
Don’t Blink.
