so i went to get my annual mandatory TB test read. i was all set to make my "so if its not TB why am i coughing up all this blood" joke, when lo and behold, the little russian man next to me pulled up his sleeve, revealing that his arm was inflamed all around the bright red raised ciricle of TB reaction. he was getting his x-ray perscription as i left.

sorry about the turbuculous, dude.
