i like where this is going...maybe we could set up "intern olympics"

where first years from around the country can compete in events such as:
- three legged race with your co-resident from nurses station to nurses station rewriting orders over and over again
- endurance test where you hold an army-navy retractor for as long as possible against a constant 40 lb force while using your other hand to wipe your chief's arse...i'm mean forehead
- stair climbing marathon taking the back way to all wings of the hospital over and over again until someone collapses (you are allowed to start an IV on yourself mid-race)
- edentulation race where you are judged on what percent of your state population you can edentulate with the sole use of a woodson periosteal elevator (sorry kentucky...most are already taken)
this would really be more of a celebration of all that is good and wonderful about our profession so there need not be a prize, only the deep satisfaction of serving our fellow man to better all of mankind. any takers????
