  12. A man comes into the ER and yells, "My wife is going to have her baby in the cab!" I grabbed my stuff, rushed out to the cab, lifted the lady's dress, and began to take off her underwear. Suddenly, I noticed that there are several cabs and I was in the wrong one. ************ At the beginning of my shift, I placed a stethoscope on an elderly and slightly deaf female patient's anterior chest wall.
