oldie but still gets 'em

Our most senior cardiothoracic surgeon...AKA .........GOD

AKA....DADDY..... well aware of and thrives on his presumptive status....

he was preaching in his usual condescending mannor why monitoring leads "should never touch the sternal incision...."

Being in charge of rounds that day,, in audiance of 10 plus people I strike a serious pose and ask the end all and be all of our surgeon...

"What's the difference of God and a surgeon ?...."

As his eyebrow raises in the silence of the room I finish...

"God KNOWS, he's NOT a surgeon"

Tough room to work that moning:)

How many cardiac surgeons does it take to change a lightbulb?

Just one but all they have to do is hold it in the air and the world will turn around them !
