Thoughts

Quick update today. A thought on medicine, anatomy and bits and bobs.

I wish I spoke latin. I've looked at enough textbooks now to spot common trends with the words. So, being the smarty pants I am, I go look up that frequently occurring word, and it's always ridiculous. The latin word is always 'hole' or 'lumpy bit' or 'bendy bit.' Never anything overly smart sounding... I realise now why medicos keep the Latin version. People will happily pay a GP to examine their gluteal sulcus, but not the English equivalent.

Funny money.
