construction workers with medical education.

i forgot!  the awesomest part about yesterday and getting to the spinal cord -- not only did we get to use the bone saw, but we got to use a "bone" chisel!  granted, we called it a "bone chisel", but i think that was really just to make it seem less barbaric.  it looked like a plain old chisel to me + a mallet.  minus all the gut juice on it.    .....was that too much for you?  hah.  but it was pretty cool.  i'm always the one who ends up doing the work and jumping in when we do the bone crushing type work.  although i've pretty much figured out that general surgery is not for me (too long and tedious -- soo frustrating!), the bone stuff is still in the picture.
