Smash And Grab

is it a bad sign if im dreading the preventive classes? radio lessons are so fun, but after that... was having a bitchin' session with the guys during lunch and the preventive class came up. i think that a class fully driven by presentations is a very risky experment for any teacher to undertake, because of the lack of control in exactly what we learn. at the end of the day, i still want a base of knowledge that is at least complete enough for me to inform my patients and make decisions. and the preventive classes seem to be, frankly, going nowhere. now what makes this different from our normal PBL? PBL is in small groups. the facilitating doctor can still rein in the group if it goes out of whack. and we at least have the basic knowledge to rationalise with before we get down to investigation. what do we know about fluorides? balls-all! zip! nada!

am back to cutting preps again. damned if i havent lost my touch since doing all the waxwork! looks like my kill-bill is gonna rise and rise. but as with all things, i got to start somewhere.

gold bill came back. $171? whoa momma!

wanna watch movie again! any takers?
