Geez, after hearing this story I might just go to a good
seamstress. They just charge 6 bucks to shorten a pair of pants, and I bet they would do a neater job than most emergency room hacks. ;-)

All you need is two bottles of whiskey. But don’t give the seamstress hers until she’s finished stitching.

My Dad, God rest his soul, was a veterinarian. One icy morning while doing chores, she slipped and put a major gap in his lower lip requiring stitches.

Dad was not vain, but the local ER did such a hack job, he carried scars for quite sometime after. On the way out, he told them he did better work on a horse.

I predict that veterinarians will be picking up a lot of slack as millions more entitlement cases are dumped on an already overloaded system. Their training is as rigorous as most MDs and their ability to innovate is much less restrained by the threat of lawsuits.

When Jimmy Carter was president, Dad used to joke that some veterinarian must have grafted a horse's ass where his brain belonged.
