Obvious graduates of the “Starfleet James Tiberius Kirk School of Medicine”….. FOR…… THE…..DRAMATIC…… PAUSES.

Everyone knows that Maniacal Laughter is learned on the Psychiatric Rotation (I am a Doctor of Divinity in Theology and a Doctor of Philosophy in Psychology)… so that is how I know the answer to that question.

God Bless,

Benjamin

“either natural — or supernatural”, covers quite a bit. His reputation is pretty safe … unless there are blood-feeding *artificial* creatures, (don’t turn your back on your Aibo).

BTW, is it true that before they can be allowed to practice, all doctors have to take a brief course in maniacal laughter? Or was that just scientists?

Just curious.

What year of medical school do doctors study dramatic pauses?

Surely phrases such as “either natural—-or supernatural” takes at least a semester of intense study to perfect!

Carl,

Medical examiners have a reputation among police officers and the legal community for their quality work (or lack thereof), so I think that is what is he is referring to here.

Er, my “county”. I’ve lived in my country even longer.

Do medical examiners really have a “reputation”? I couldn’t name the medical examiner for my country and I’ve lived here for 20 years.
