Dr. Leakey, I presume?

Seems rather pointless…

Vacation to Mongolia?

Penetrating medical advice.

Why? What’s the point? … Okay … Point the way.

Doc’s taking the casual approach with a casualty.

It was an arrow escape…

And don’t look in the mirror.

It’s Flex Seal

A bathtub might be better

There could be some leakage. The beverage must be something like radiator sealant.

it’s a miracle he’s doing as well as he is, all things considered!

“Try not to bleed all over the place.”

Those are really big arrows. Looks like he’s been attacked by orcs.

Just checking for leaks.

Rand Musings:

“If this is some kind of gag, Doc, I’m going to pull out these arrows myself — and you won’t like where I then plan to insert them!”

The patient must have been hanging around just a little too close to the speaker of this piece of vintage verse:

I shot an arrow into the air,

It fell to Earth, I knew not where,

Until one day, with rage profound,

The man it fell on came around.

He showed me where that arrow fell

(A place I do not care to tell),

And now I do no longer care,

To shoot my arrows in the air.

Please Mr. Custer…I don’t wanna go…I had a dream last night,about the coming fight.Somebody yelled “Attack!”and there I stood with a arrow in my back…
