I did. It was on every TV news show the day it was reported and in every newspaper the next day out here in L.A. (The doc did it in NYC.)

Bill Cosby used to do a routine called “Oops!” on this very subject.

I seriously heard a doctor/surgeon say that when they were repairing a torn tendon. Rather than knock me out completely with a general anesthesia, they’d used a strong sedative–which means I remember being wheeled in, receiving the first few cuts, and wheeled out. Granted, it was just my finger–not open heart surgery–but I distinctly remember the doctors discussing basketball games, teams, etc. Even through my sedated fog I remember thinking, “Hey! Don’t talk about basketball! Fix my finger!”

But my finger is fine, so I have no further complaints. 🙂
