My nursing colleague was preparing an intravenous line for a 15-year-old male patient. The bedside phone rang, and the boy's mother reached over to pick it up.
After talking for a few minutes, the mother held the phone aside and said, "Your father wants to know if you have any cute nurses."
The boy gazed at the nurse, who had the needle poised above his arm, ready for insertion.
"Tell him," he replied, "they're absolutely gorgeous."
