Word Of The Day

Furcula

It’s a noun, but it sounds like a word that I’d really like to use as a verb…or even as an oath the next time I stub my toe

“Ah furcula!”

   “We have the antorbital fossa being dorsally bordered by the nasal and lacrimal, a relatively small number of caudal vertebrae, a relatively large proximodorsal process of the ischium, a relatively long pre-acetabular process of the ilium, fusion of the proximal part of the metatarsus… among others.”

   Now do you understand?

   This is simply the name for the curriculum in the vet program at a university. Fur-cula. It’s Monday in Tucson as well, but lets get into gear out there.
