Guest guest Posted May 14, 2002 Report Share Posted May 14, 2002 I'm usually on call on the weekends for the dictation for the inpatient psych unit. I had one of the docs call me on the phone to let me know that he would be running late the next day (Saturday), so his dictation would be a little later than usual: " Hey , this is Jeff. " <I'm thinking ... Jeff who?> " Oh, hi. " " I just wanted to call and let you know that my son has little league tomorrow morning, period. So, I'm ... " <enormous pause while I'm biting the inside of my mouth until it bleeds to keep from cracking up> " Oh, hell. Did I just say period? Oh my God. What sort of dumb ass am I? Apparently, I have been doing too much dictation lately. You're going to use this against me, aren't you? " I couldn't help it. I laughed so hard I almost wet my pants. Funny I love it when the doctors get in such a habit of dictating punctuation, that they do it without thinking when it's not necessary. I just had a doctor dictate a sentence " period " and then clear his throat and say " excuse me, period. " LOL! _________________________________________________________________ Send and receive Hotmail on your mobile device: http://mobile.msn.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted July 23, 2008 Report Share Posted July 23, 2008  European countries automatically learn English - usually British English - they do spell things differently Re: funny Looks more like Dutch to me than German. LOL --Mr. Dana F. Utz utzdanacomcast (DOT) net https://home.comcast.net/~utzdana/ -------------- Original message -------------- From: Shirley <shirleyann64att (DOT) net> European Commission has just announced an agreement whereby English will be the official language of the European Union rather than German, which was the other possibility. As part of the negotiations, the British Government conceded that English spelling had some room for improvement and has accepted a 5-year phase-in plan that would become known as 'Euro-English'. In the first year, 's' will replace the soft 'c'. Sertainly, this will make the! sivil servants jump with joy. The hard 'c' will be dropped in favour of 'k'. This should klear up konfusion, and keyboards kan have one less letter. There will be growing publik enthusiasm in the sekond year when the troublesome 'ph' will be replaced with 'f'. This will make words like fotograf 20% shorter. In the 3rd year, publik akseptanse of the new spellingkan be expekted to reach the stage where more komplikated changes are possible. Governments will enkourage the removal of double letters which have always ben a deterent to akurate speling. Also, al wil agre that the horibl mes of the silent 'e' in the languag is disgrasful and it should go away. By the 4th yer people wil be reseptiv to step! s such as replasing 'th' with 'z' and 'w' wit h 'v'. During ze fifz yer, ze unesesary 'o' kan be dropd from vords kontaining 'ou' and after ziz fifz yer, ve vil ha! v a reil sensi bl r iten styl. Zer vil be no mor trubl or difikultis and evrivun vil find it ezi tu understand ech oza. Ze drem of a united urop vil finali kum tru. Und efter ze fifz yer, ve vil al be speking German like zey vunted in ze forst plas. If zis mad you smil, pleas pas on to oza pepl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
