On Vocations

I'm at a holiday party mingling, grazing, and generally having a good time. I stop to shake hands with the host and chit chat a little.

Turns out he's a board certified equine surgeon. The only one within a four hundred mile radius. He just recently finished construction of his multi-stall horse hospital and will be bringing in interns from around the country to train under his leadership. Of course, come spring, he'll be very busy bringing in foals all across the country. He's also working on some neoplasm treatments for horses with various skin cancer lesions. That's a new and very exciting develpment for horses who are getting older, extending their lives like never before.

"So, what do you do Bill?"

Right...
