The irrational yet irrestible urge to know or make known. The CC is a "club" founded by a small group of medical professionals, who have made a pastime of turning medical cases and discussions into medically irrelevant history lessons, philosophical rants, and displays of one-upsmanship. The official premise, since the "club" was named, has been to exchange and discuss various books, movies, and ideas. Sometimes we eat sushi.
From WordSpy, my word of the day is bed blocker. Of course I don't really worry about this too much lately, but it makes me think that some of you could pull a derivative definition from this, like 'inpatient service blocker' or 'lockdown room blocker' or even 'ER bed blocker' which typically later becomes a bed blocker, service blocker, or lockdown room blocker for some poor intern.

Also known as a ROCK, as you know interns have occasionally "polished a rock" --to keep around and inflate their service numbers. Of course a rock is a nice person who requires little or no care. Contrary to a GOMER orignially GET OUT OF MY ER("House of God")which now is a generic sick old person usually with family from Flint, Mich. or anywhere in Indiana.
