New Hair and New Teeth?Well, Bad Medicine has rebelled again. Here he is posting his own variant of the medical world at large. Dr No's brain is so complicated, I doubt that the one beeping neurone at GMC Towers would be able to understand what he has written. I shouldn't really mock the afflicted at our dark towers but I can't resist on occasion.
On the other side of the medical pond - ie General Practice, rebellion has set in. I think more rebellion will commence and hopefully the BMA will be one brick standing on its own in Tavistock Square. I am awaiting the day when its leather sofas will be auctioned on e-bay. It is time a new competitive trade union was created, and one that reflected the ideals of doctors everywhere. The BMJ is becoming tiresome and yes, we know they like to imitate us trendy bloggers but they have to face facts - they ain't got the same rebellious streak in them to be a true blogging guru. Helen Bright called them imitations the other day. Richard Smith tries to be cool but lets face it Richard has never been cool. Firstly, he needs a hair cut then he needs some hair dye and after that he needs to start writing like he doesn't care about the medical establishment. Then Richard belongs to his clique - a closet rebel who really likes to click champagne glasses with those who are of the view they make a difference but don't really :). The BMJ exists to prevent rebellion, to control the medical population into a steady state.
I was wondering if the BMJ had anything to say these days and if it folded tomorrow, would it be missed? Well, perhaps the Careers Supplement and Jobs section may get missed but in these ecofriendly days, is there really any point to printing the journal?
