You know, they tried to make us HIPPA aware at school by scheduling 
a movie watching session over our lunch break. I hope everyone out 
there knows what a bad idea that was.... Anyway, we spent the entire 
time laughing at the lady with the broken arm as she wanders around 
the hospital rather than getting it looked at in any way, shape, or 
form. Yeah we believe it. I think our favorite part was the 
following:
"I just read off that computer screen that my neighbor has prostate 
cancer, can I catch it?"
Now the nurse in the scene says nothing. We all laughed our butts 
off. We figured that she should have said something along the lines 
or 'you don't have a prostate' but nope. No comments. 

And they wondered why we were laughing.

Haggrid, by the way, I have read "House of God" as has most of my 
class. We are all waiting for our chance to experience these things.
