Random (but not really)

Looks Like Chicken

Another bonus of my job?

I’m sitting at the front desk, and right in front of me one of the students is doing her on-line course work and looking at closeups of cadavers. Some pictures are body shots, others are close-ups of muscles and tendons and such.

Pretty neat, actually. And far more interesting than the drunken friends on Facebook the girl next to her is viewing.

    I once had to help someone from the Med School get some CT Scans of cadavers. To get to her office, we had to go through the cadaver lab. She opened the door and said, “Do cadavers bother you?” while proceeding into the lab.

    “I don’t know,” said I. There were several on the tables, but they were all covered up. Covered up they didn’t bother me. I still don’t know if I would be bothered. Maybe I could just pretend to be down in Autopsy with Ducky.

    I don’t remember what it was for, but once, my assignment was to find a morgue for a scene. So I went out and scouted…duh…morgues. The next day, I’m showing the director pictures and his reaction was, “We can’t shoot in any of these places. They’re full of dead people.”

    After a moment of silence I said, “You could always re-write the scene as an Ice-Cream Parlor.”

    Stupid dead people.

    Ewww… we had to watch a grad student work on one in my college bio class. It was super-weird. I’m not crazy about the smell of formaldehyde.

    Nathan — LOL. I’d like to shoot in one of those morgues without dead people - do you have one of those handy?
