Stay Away from the Beans

Like I've said before, for one of our studies, we're giving drugs to people who have had heart attacks.  It is my job to look at databases and randomly assign numbers to numbers.

Moi: I'm all set.  There were less people with heart attacks this time.

Whitecastle: Oh, there will be more.

Moi: Are we rooting for heart attacks?

Whitecastle: Well, it's kind of screwing with our study if they don't have them.  We don't want people to die, just to have that initial heart attack.

Moi: Of course.  So no more exercising?

Whitecastle: And eat lots of MacDonalds.

And that's your health tip of the day, brought to you by socially conscious researchers who are changing the face of medicine.  Seriously, he's among the good folks in this.
