Bastard coated bastards with bastard filling.  
[/QUOTE]

Both are correct and two of my favorite lines!

As for Carla not going to college, getting an R.N. did not (note the past tense) require a college degree. Basically, it required the equivalent of an associates degree. My mother is an R.N. and she went to a nursing school, as in they only trained nurses and you didn’t take classes in anything else. Carla must have just snuck in under the line for needing a Bachelor’s…

134. Which character has the best bazoombas on Scrubs? (Ok, so this isn’t exactly a trivia question.) I gotta go with Dr. Molly Clock.  
[/QUOTE]  
I have to disagree (not that I check boobs out on a regular basis, as I am straight) It’s got to be Eliot, since hers are magical - the improved one young patient, and almost killed another (altho they failed to resurrect the dead).

Which reminds me…

136 - There’s one episode where JD randomly exclaims ‘Banana Hammocks!’ several times. Under what circumstances does he blurt out this rather embarrassing phrase?

(Will have a followup once this is answered.)

[QUOTE=Woottonite]  
115. List every girl’s name that JD has been called by Dr. Cox.  
[/quote]  
There’s a lot, I’ll take a stab since I’ve been enjoying this thread: Shirley, Nancy, Debbie, Marcia, Gloria, Betty, Carol, Claudia, Priscilla, Dorothy, Joanna (this might’ve been Mandy Moore); Trish, Stephanie, Agnes, Majorie, Ginger, Sandra, Vivian, Sabrina, Shakira, Katie, Shannon, and I think Wilma. I’m also positive that I missed a ton of other girls names (not to mention other names like Scooter – if that’s a girl’s name). I saw some trivia from the show (like a flashback episode or behind the scenes or something like that) that said that the girls names are never repeated, but they clearly are. I believe Nancy is the one used the most, though possibly Carol or Dorothy.

> Re: Cox and Jordan’s divorce. They were having problems and Cox told one of his then friends/fellow doctors about it and said doctor, played by Jay Mohr, used that knowledge to have sex with Jordan and thus blow up Cox’s marriage to Jordan.

That’s correct!

Jordon is around and JD is afraid that Cox will find out he slept with her? If not, its because the malpractice lawyer is tough, sexy, and intimidating.

Nah, it’s just every time he’s nervous and afraid he’s going to reveal something bad - like he slept with Jordan.

So, sorta.

“Miracle Five.” As Dr.Cox said, it began with a profound lack of understanding of the human body, and ends with him shattering an old man’s hand.

144 (I think): After finally being allowed to ride in Dr.Cox’s Porche, what does JD do to get banned from the front seat?

145: What did Colin Farrel’s character say to Carla that almost made her kiss him?
