noun
plural noun: cohunes

a Central American palm that is a valuable source of oil.
the oil-rich nut of the cohune palm.
noun: cohune nut; plural noun: cohune nuts

did you mean cohones?

Cohones
Spanish slang for testicles, balls, nuts. Normally said in reference to someones bravery or "guts"
The American "tunnel rats" in Vietnam had some big cohones

or are you implying that our 'guest' is a valuable source of oil? it (guest) is certainly greasy enough.

I did notice recently that 'guest' shut up about the same time as ems flounced off to harass the jr high school kids after declaring something she'd started to be "nonesense" after the tide turned against her.

probably just a coincidence.

sorry, I didn't know if it was a typo, or you were taking a swing at the resident pest that I didn't recognize *lol*

I just saw the word and went "huh"? googled it, and was surprised, I'd never heard of those trees before

I agree that it goes beyond malpractice into more serious areas of true gross negligence. If this is indicative of how he practices medicine I seriously believe he is a danger to my community. I fully intend to pursue the revocation of his medical license in my state.

I have talked this through with a few other physicians in the community and they all agree with me, the wrong tests were ordered, some tests were not done, and it all could have been prevented. Physicians aren't usually one to throw each other under the bus, quite the opposite, but when they see something like this that is indefensible, they have no trouble saying that they believe a patient was wronged. One even offered to testify to the state medical board that the treating physician was in gross violation of the standards of practice and evidence based medicine.

I am glad to hear that you making sure the physician gets his license revoked and that other physicians are willing to back you up on this. I wish you all the luck in the world with this.

@Sleepyeyes. your avatar reminds me of an old series of ads for a forehead thermometer;
The ad pictures a baby's face through a fisheye lens, with an extremely shocked expression.
The caption was, "You're going to take my temperature ----WHERE?"
Yours could be, "---But you said you were E.T.!"
--Here come the aliens, remain seated for your own protection.
