MEDICAL DEFINITIONS
With so many hospital and doctor shows on TV these days, it's important to have a good understanding of medical terminology. Here are a few definitions that will help you know what's going on when they start talking medical talk on TV:
Bacteria - The back door of the cafeteria
Barium - What doctors do when their patients die
Bowel - A letter like A, E, I, O or U
CAT Scan - Searching for a kitty
Cauterize - To make eye contact with a girl
Enema - Someone who is not your friend
Fibula - A small lie
Labor Pain - When you get hurt at work
Pelvis - An Elvis impersonator
Recovery Room - A place to do upholstery
Rectum - Almost killed 'em
Seizure - A Roman emperor
Terminal - Where the planes land
Varicose - Nearby
Vein - To be conceited
With Viagra such a hit, Pfizer is bringing forth a whole line of drugs
oriented towards improving the performance of men in today's
society...
DIRECTRA - a dose of this drug given to men before leaving on car
trips caused 72 percent of them to stop and ask directions when they got
lost, compared to a control group of 0.2 percent.
PROJECTRA - Men given this experimental new drug were far more likely
to actually finish a household repair project before starting a new one.
CHILDAGRA - Men taking this drug reported a sudden, over-whelming urge
to perform more child-care tasks - especially cleaning up spills and
"little accidents."
COMPLIMENTRA - In clinical trials, 82 percent of middle-aged men
administered this drug noticed that their wives had a new hairstyle.
Currently being tested to see if its effects extend to noticing new
clothing.
BUYAGRA - Married and otherwise attached men reported a sudden urge to
buy their sweeties expensive jewellery and gifts after taking this
drug for only two days. Still to be seen: whether the drug can be
continued for a period longer than your favourite store's return limit.
NEGA-VIAGRA - Has the exact opposite effect of Viagra. Currently
undergoing clinical trials on sitting U.S. presidents.
NEGA-SPORTAGRA - This drug had the strange effect of making men want
to turn off televised sports and actually converse with other family
members.
FLATULAGRA - This complex drug converts men's noxious intestinal gases
back into food solids. Special bonus: Dosage can be doubled for long
car rides.
FLYAGRA - This drug has been showing great promise in treating men
with O.F.D. (Open Fly Disorder). Especially useful for men on Viagra.
PRYAGRA - About to fail its clinical trial, this drug gave men in the
test group an irresistible urge to dig into the personal affairs of
other people. Note: Apparent over-doses turned three test subjects
into "special prosecutors."
LIAGRA - This drug causes men to be less than truthful when being
asked about their sexual affairs. Will be available in Regular, Grand
Jury and Presidential Strength versions.
