I’m going to try a different approach to this challenge to make it more fun for us all. I’m going to post a medical term and want you all to make up your own goofy definition and put it in the comment section. Then on Sunday I’m going to choose some finalists (number of finalists chosen to be determined by number of entries) and post a poll for you to vote on the funniest. So here we go… the word is phalanx.
And now I’m off to get a good nights rest before I start my first day of orientation at my new job tomorrow!

I googled the phrase “enhancing or assisting another medication” and got the Answers.com definition, but it wasn’t by any stretch of the imagination my first attempt at finding the answer. I think I worked for three hours — for a “congratulations auntie.” Shhesh!
It’s a “stubborn” thing. The words “give up” and I are incompatable.

That’s a military term. I like the mad lib idea better–fill in the blank.

Tom, it may be a military word to you – but to my little nurse, it’s the bone in hand and finger.
Now where’s your offering of funny definition??? xoxoxo

Okay, fine. phalanx. It has the obvious association of phallus, so that’s out. How about Phalanx: used in Veternarian medicine, it refers the angle of cut preferrable in the clipping of a Doberman’s ear.

Phalanx–The medical term for the shade of red you turn when that SBD fart turns out to be quite loud.
