I wish we had a "like" button. So cool!

PS are you out of med school now? I seem to recall you posting as you were starting school.

You should have taken her for a top down ride and let her blue hair blow in the wind lol

There was a reason for the toboggan on the console, and it wasn't to keep the shifter warm.

I am in the residency interview season now. I chose ortho. We'll see if I can get someone to take me!

Took my 78 y/o Mom for a top down ride in the S when I first got it. When she was young she wanted '52 MG TD, but once she got married that dream passed by. So I thought a ride in the S would be fun.

As I approached 5k rpm, she started freaking out. Never even got a chance to hit vtec. She also declined taking a turn at the wheel.

Maybe the dream never was realistic.

Good luck on Match Day, young one! Ortho is tough, but worth the effort. Just remember to be nice to your Neurology colleagues, we can pull your fat out of the fire on occasion!

I chose neurology as my sub-internship. It will always be my first love. lol I won an academic award and scholarship for neuroscience the first year of med school.
