Lesson to be learned

First-year students at Texas A&M's Vet school were receiving their first

anatomy class, with a real dead cow. They all gathered around the

surgery table with the body covered with a white sheet.

The professor started the class by telling them, 'In Veterinary Medicine

it is necessary to have two important qualities as a doctor: The first is

that you not be disgusted by anything involving the animal body. For an

example, the Professor pulled back the sheet, stuck his finger in the butt of the

dead cow, withdrew it and stuck it in his mouth.

'Go ahead and do the same thing,' he told his students. The students

freaked out, hesitated for several minutes. But eventually took turns

sticking a finger in the anal opening of the dead cow and sucking on it.

When everyone finished, the Professor looked at them and said, 'The

second most important quality is observation. I stuck in my middle finger and

sucked on my index finger. Now learn to pay attention. 'Life's tough,

it's even tougher if you're stupid.'
