I remember reading about Dubin's indiscretions in first year when we were doing cardio, and couldn't believe it.
Allegedly, the only reason he didn't get a harsher sentence was because he knew so many people in California who he could throw under the bus if need be (from all the wild parties he used to hold at his multi-million dollar mansion).
Just FYI, sleep is also not necessary for operating Navy nuclear power plants. Sleep seems to be over-rated for a lot of higher cerebral tasks, it seems.
Leftover food from a patient's tray isn't bad either.

I'll try and dig up the article about that.
When someone told me about Dubin, we went through several rounds of him insisting it was true followed by me yelling, "No way!"
