Finally, a cartoon for radiologists!
Oh, dear. I’m afraid some may think this cartoon is a reflection of what I think of certain men: that they don’t have a “backbone.” Or that they’re weak or spineless in any area, actually.
They rate diamonds by their hardness…why not bones? (Actually they do – for osteoporosis.)
Get a backbone, stat!
No, this x-ray cartoon is not just about men, for I judge both men and women for their strength: how they “stand up” , or don’t, for either themselves, a cause, an opinion. Because without courage, and something strong to stand with, one is just a quivering pile of jello. Gross.
Even the doctor or technician here can’t give a full-out direct prognosis; he wants a second opinion! What a weenie. Keep your bones, and especially your backbone.
Plus, my latest in PsychCentral is up now: Better not show this cartoon to your therapist.
ID # 3011as Caption: Doctor has full-body x-ray of patient’s entire skeleton, and says to patient: “Well, I’d want the whole thing taken out, but you might want a second opinion on that.”
I can’t help it, I still think this cartoon is hysterical. I think I sold it somewhere, but if not, I should have.
For those interested in the illustration, this is a limited palette of only 2 colors: greys and gold.
