Physicians were a scruffy lot, until they took on airs and started calling themselves doctors. Doctor, PhD, was a degree physicians didn’t have but you could charge higher fees for smelling urine if you called yourself a doctor (physicians were not allowed to touch patients – that was for surgeons).
Go for it Kevin. In my youth, I was branded “stupid” (I’m dyslexic) by elementary school teachers. I now have a Ph.D. in Molecular Quantum Chemistry. Never let anyone else tell you what you can and cannot do. Find out for yourself and reach for the stars.
whenever i’m obliged to visit a medical facility i’m almost always given cause to remember that the guy who finishes last in his class at medical school is still a doctor…

At least Miles is realistic, even if Kevin isn’t.

A PhD is possible.
Maybe not in physics.

What are you thinking about it? About how unrealistic it is?

Gee, that’s one way of telling Kevin that you don’t have any faith in him.

Never contemplated the possibility that he might actually grow up some day, I guess.

Wait until he finds out how long you have to go to school to become a doctor.

When I was a kid, no one expected much from me. Now I’m a doctor twice, a doctor of philosophy and a doctor of social science. You never know.

We already know he don’t faint at the sight of blood. Not even his own. Washing his hands though? I don’t know.
