Eureka!

Hello hello!  No, I haven't struck gold or even fool's gold.  And no, I haven't decided to leave the office job of a clinical audiologist (per the picture of me...took a pic of myself with my cell phone while I was on a group tour in a gold mine just last week).  The only canals I traverse are external auditory meatus aka ear canals.  A headlamp can be worn to assist the audiologist in cerumen (earwax) removal, but hard hats are unnecessary.  And since I didn't find any gold during my lil field trip, suppose I shall stick with the second chosen career path. :-)  Speaking of which, the last day of Summer Quarter of Year 3 was on Friday, 5 August 2011.  That means I'm officially a fourth-year student doctor of audiology.  And less than 360 days until graduation.  So guess "WOO HOO!" is more appropriate of a blog entry title than "Eureka!". ;-P  Did you know there is about $50 million worth of gold in this mine but it would take about $75 million to get it out so the gold has been left alone?  I'm "Hear 4 U Always"...and expanding my horizons but never forgetting Priority #1 which is providing excellent hearing & balance health care.
