I just scored a 32. It's probably reflective of my InTp personality type according to the Myers-Briggs test (a very interesting test in its own right, intp.org has a link for one), or it could be because I live alone with my cat.

This reminds me of a boss I once had who used psychology on everything. Nothing like 'feeling' managed and manipulated. Ugh [8o|] 'I've been using the Myer-Briggs personality test to determine how to get the most work out of you". geesh Mgt 101 anyone?

Loved this one- do you think I qualify for 'strongly agree'?

I like to collect information about categories of things (e.g., types of cars, birds, trains, plants).

Do model number of loudspeakers and all their component parts count? Heck I still have LearJet part numbers floating around from my time in parts dept there.

"You must be my long lost twin....or close enough anyway and I empathize completely

I too suffer from ADHD , OCD, and mild dyslexia ...all with an I.Q of over 150.......My IQ was spotted early in standardized tests, checked and rechecked, but my other problems when undiagnosed until later in life.........My teachers often labeled me as lazy,troublesome, uncooperative, Some even thought that I was slow initially because of my poor spelling....then I would lecture them on advanced particle physics or quantum theory.......or once sufficiently focused, regurgitate verbatim and dissect the classic works of literature, of which the teachers barely had a working grasp.

It didn't mean that I had the social skills .......I was just a weirdo ....good thing I was big or I would have gotten an *** beating on a daily basis"

Reads like an excerpt from my autobiography.... except I was not big, so I got my butt beat on a daily basis!!! [st] After the fights and retaliation on my part (I was in serious trouble all the time...) parents finally gave up and locked my happy self up in boarding schools.... whereupon I had my butt beat every day by the teachers until I learned the true meaning of cooperate and graduate!!![:|] Now I am much better behaved....[A]

Tom, the thing that I think you don't get is this. During each and every case. The foley is identified within the bladder. It needs to be in order to imobilize the bladder off of the anterior lower uterine segment. If it is not moved down, the incicion for a c/section would go down right thru the bladder. Bad form.

The bladder also have to be immobilized and disected off of the anterior lower uterine segement on a hysterectomy. If you dont, you send a large chunk of bladder, along with the uterus to the Path dept. NOw there is a suckhole day for all involved. It I have a student in the room, I pull the balloon up. If the student is at home, sleeping in late or something. I still pull the catheter up. The surgery is done the same exact way each time.

So, if a student is in the room. First of all the patient meets my student face to face in the office, then at the hospital before going to sleep. They understand that he/she will be there. The student and I will then feel and examine parts of the internal anatomy. They sign a form stating that this is fine. If they have the slightest hesitation, the student is not in there. NOTHING, NOT ANYTHING is slipped by the patient. No need to be secretive, we are doing anything that harms the patient.

So, student present, they get to see and feel what a normal/abnormal uterus, ovary, appendix, bowel, large and small, bladder, aorta, vena cava, Psoas Muscle, masses, expected or unexpected are. And yet, I have them feel the Foley bulb without telling them what it is. It is an unexpected finding, this little round thing in the bladder. Now, forgive me all involved, but at that point I have fun with them and ask them, OH MY GOODNESS< what could that be?

To see them stumbe around for some off the wall crazy diagnosis, yes we giggle. It is funny, was funny when it happened to me. I will sometimes ask. If you were doing this surgery, what would you do about that mass there? More that a few will say, well, we need to disect it out in case it is a cancer.

BAD MOVE. This bad mood would indeed leed to a very poor, and unneccesary complication. If I then teach them that this is normal while a catheter is in place, my students had better NEVER come back to my OR and say that they accidently biopsied the cather. To date, none ever had.

Few more things: Would I do this with the family in there. YES

Would I video myself doing this for the family and patient to see later? YES again.

And, for the record, doctors sometimes do use bad handwriting to cover up for poor spelling skils....

Speaking of spelling, Twisted: Nowhere in Islander's post did he question your intelligence regarding spelling. I think he had a good point due to the following reason: The subject of engines of a certain kind and where they are manufactured is a specialty of yours. One you have been intimately familiar with for many years. It is not really asking too much that from simple repetition over time that you might be able to spell these cities correctly. After all, you have managed to learn how to spell most of the words in your posts just fine. Reach up with your unoccupied hand and remove the chip off your shoulder dude.

I would bet most of us here have IQ's in the higher range compared to the general public, simply because we have the capability to figure out that Klipsch speakers offer one of the best values for sound and in many cases some of the best sound at most any price. Lesser intelligence types (such as management, see another thread) are satisfied with bose because they well, as you might put it, just are not smart enough to figure it out.

The tone of some of your posts brings no surprise to me of your revelation that you were involved in lots of fights in school. Blame it on whatever you want.

Here's a little related trivia: in the culture of a certain large East Asian country, a woman with little or no body hair is called a "White Tiger" and is considered unlucky and a bad choice as a wife. Luckily, exposure to modern porn is returning this old myth to the dark place it came from.

Exactly, oldtimer!

Even so, I'll try to be less pedantic in future, but it is kind of the way I am.

Yes... After alot of exposure.... finally someone else has stepped forward to dispel that myth!!! [Y][Y][Y][6][<)]

Yes, it's such important work, ending discrimination and bringing respect to follically-challenged women. I'm proud to be a part of this important campaign.

God bless you Pat, no matter what your IQ is.

And so you should be. When I run for office, you will certainly be on my short hair list for pubic relations advisor!!! I will aboslutely need advisors to meat personally with those so unfortunately challenged and determine if their needs are being met in an appropriate fashion!!!

[artto]

"artto" (or arto) is NOT "Art ~ too". It's pronouced like "Ardo"

Art (Arthur) is my first name.

Back in late High School a buddy of mine called me "Art old boy" a few times (because I always looked much older than my age by 3-5 years ~ a big deal at that age ~ I never got carded). It was quickly shortened to "Artoboy" and then almost immediately thereafter to "Arto", and I guess it stuck.

The only reason I now usually use two "T's" is becuase "arto" as an internet user name seems to be more common than one would think.

But it's NOT Art to. Just think "Ardo" like the dimwit Penthouse model who signed a picture handout for me years ago at the Consumer Electronics Show did.

White Tigers are still getting no respect. My work is not done yet.

Even if she was just a Bic-using wannabe White Tiger, the principle is still the same.

James,

As for your little "PUKE" escapade, I would relay a similar evil streak in my own character. Arround here, there is a guy who ran after hour parties for probably 20 years. First the parties were at his parrents farm. Everyone had access to the pond a sand pit volleyball cort, and the barn. Later, these parties were moved down the road into a woods. These parties would take place every weekend during the summer. In the woods he built another sand pit volleyball court with spot lights, an elevated dance floor, a D.J. building with electrical service for P.A./music, he would keep a bonfire going all night by burning pallets, and he had porta potties. He would ask everyone who came for a dollar donation in the parking area. Some people would show up at 10 or 11pm, but the place really didn't start hopping until after the bars would close down. One year in my late teens or early twenties, I was there with about 4 friends and I got a wild burr up my ***. You have to realize most of these people were drunk and would bring their own booze, beer mainly, but drug use was also everywhere. The ground in the woods was like at a highly used camp site where you get that dried out fine powdered dirt. There could be 300 to 500 people out there at a time. Well I got an idea and told my best bud, and we got down on are hands and knees and started finely brushing some of this fine dust arround with are fingers. A few people came up and asked what was going on, and I replied, "dude here dropped a hit of blotter, and we're trying to find it". These people got down on their knees and joined in the search. The more people who were on the ground the faster people would come over to find out what was going on, and others would explain. Very soon it was forgotten who orriginally lost that hit of blotter that never existed and me and my buddy, plus my other two friends are standing up and watching 30 to 40 drunk, waisted people on their hands and knees, scratching arround in the dirt, picking up every scrap piece of paper or gum wrapper they could find and "EATING THEM"!!! We watched and watched and laughed our assess off!!
