Brigham was lucky today to have such an iconic Grand Rounds Speaker. @AJGTempleSurg is the reason I went into surgery and strive to be “an internist who operates”. Forever #TempleMade @templemedschool @TempleSurgery @zoe_maher @Lizddauer @TheScottCharles

As children, Ice Cream Truck music drew us out to buy a treat. Now there is a masked bicycle guy with a large backpack & loud music who rides around @BPLBoston Copley; folks flag him down to buy drugs. Good marketing works in many contexts. Seems obvious @bostonpolice?

I wish I understood cricket @ProfG_Edinsurg. This is like one of those dreams in which one arrives for the final exam but doesn’t recognize the course material.

As my wife often ways, “Free speech is a wonderful thing, because then you find out what people really think.” Unions are fine. I was in one as a resident, & was PD for unionized residents at 2 teaching hospitals But a strike would hurt everyone: patients, residents & hospitals

@maryhawn is probably right (as usual) - our system for preparing physicians for practice by bartering (patient care service) for (training salary) may be due for an overhaul.

In the meantime, we shouldn’t respond to any of this with acrimony or by denigrating anyone’s valid complaints. None of us created this system, but we do have the opportunity to improve it.
