My cousin, who recently fled the field of neurology to begin his basement dwelling pathology residency, sent me this hilarious quote from his fancy-ass new Blackberry (bitch!) as he was reading a histology text:

Lymph nodes are like singles bars for lymphocytes and antigen, providing the perfect location for lymphocytes to be exposed to a wide variety of antigens to undergo stimulation.

I thought this was too priceless not to share. Non-medical readers will just have to trust me, it’s seriously funny, medgeeky humor. I was going to msg him back and ask him why he was reading a histo book for Pete’s sake, as not even I have cracked open one of those in almost 2 years, much less him. Then I figured starting anew with path, he’d have to start somewhere remembering all those intimate cell-type details. So instead, I messaged him back about one of those cells at the bar “being a total lympho.” I know, I know…
