I like purple goats on whole wheat toast

If you type that into Google, you get about 124,000 hits. It's still fair to say I thought that one up myself.

Or if you say other self-evident things, such as nurses practice in a highly regulated environment. Anybody who's worn a hospital ID in the last twenty years can tell you that sure as the sky is blue, your manager doesn't give a good god damn what your personal nursing theory is, so long as you can quote this year's National Patient Safety Goals chapter and verse.

Then again, we're dealing with a nursing PhD here. I told her not to worry, she wouldn't see an original thought from me for the remainder of the class.

That's all I have time to write. . . . I have to go read up on my nursing theory so I can cough it back up for the discussion board.
