Bush Performs Brain Surgery (Now there's a headline you thought you'd never see!)
President Bush made a 20-minute stop at the Cleveland Clinic's Lerner Research Center, where he performed a simulated brain surgery.

Standing before a rubber replica of a human brain, the president moved a hand-control that helps teach doctors how to implant deep brain stimulation devices. He did so under the watchful eye of neurosurgeon Ali Rezai.

The president was briefly interrupted by laughter induced by top-advisor Karl Rove, who was entertaining several reporters and White House officials nearby.

Bush spent a few minutes with several more doctors, including Roy Greenberg, who showed the president how to repair a complex aortic aneurysm on a demonstration device that allowed the president to participate.

2. "That was awesome, heh heh heh," says President.
"First I froze them metroids with my freeze gun, then I blew up Mother Brain with my misslers," the President was heard saying as he left the clinic. "Plus it turned out I was one of them transvestitutes in a bikini underneath my space suit," he added.

4. Oh! I thought he was doing that kid thing where your hand is a brain sucker
and you put it on your friend's head and you ask them to guess what it's doing and they don't know and you say "starving to death"

Guess you had to be there.
