Our friends at the Huffington Post recently turned us on to Smith magazine, where we found the following anecdote that was too good not to steal:
In 1994, the [Rolling] Stones came to Atlanta. They were on their Voodoo Lounge tour; I was working as a registered nurse for a local urologist.
A day before the band’s first concert, I arrived at work a day to find an extremely excited receptionist. It seemed that Mick Jagger was experiencing some difficulties, and had been in before office hours for a special consultation with the doc. …
There in the lab, neatly labeled M. Jagger, were three containers of urine. We really only needed one, the others were backup. This was not an opportunity I could resist.
And if you think you know where this is going… you probably do.
The rest of the Smith-iness (which is all devoted to personal stories) is equally amusing; go check it out!
Aw man. I thought it was going to be a lundry list of all the substances found in his urine.

Way to maintain patient confidentiality. I hope she’s no longer employed in the medical field.
