What’s Normal?

Nurse from the ER calls and asks “What is the normal range on a blood alcohol?”

I thought it was a joke so I paused and didn’t say anything for a moment.  Then I heard and irritated voice say “Well, don’t you know?”

Techlab Immuview Legionella Streptococcus pneumoniae Respiratory Pathogens

I responded ”Zero, there is no normal amount of alcohol ever found in the blood”.

Nurse pauses and finally says “oh…oh, well I guess that makes sense” and hangs up.
