    Surgical separation was successful, part 2

    Pomtzu, I can't pass this one up.

    The original thread is here: http://PetoftheDay.com/talk/showthre...ferrerid=14351

    When I was a nursing student 25+ years ago, my classmates and I gave each other saline injections to become proficient with finding the injection sites and holding the syringe ("like a dart you're about to throw"-- but I'd never thrown darts). Nowadays the students are in high-tech learning labs, and they learn by injecting a mannikin -- I guess because of the liability issues of one student giving another a shot inaccurately.

    Dorsogluteal is where your backside meets your hip; ventrogluteal is above your hip bone, kind of on the side of your leg; and vastus lateralis is the middle front of the thigh.
