On the episode where JJ thinks he has VD, Michael opens the family medical book (I think that's what he called it). He flipped through a few pages to find 'Venereal Disease'. He finds it at only about a quarter of the way into the book. Wouldn't the Vs be at the end of the book?

I wondered abt that myself. Then again it's a medical dictionary, so who knows how many things were listed after "V"...which brings up the point of something that was mentioned by James in the episode of Florida going to school. She told James, "The word 'Ain't' isn't in the dictionary and for him to look it up...James said, "Can't...AIN'T got no dictionary." They supposedly don't have a dictionary (which I highly doubt, since Michael and Thelma were bookworms) but they had a medical dictionary/book in the house?

My aunt has a medical dictionary, but not a regular dictionary, so I guess it was the same in the Evans' household. Everybody doesn't own a dictionary. I have 3 in my household, though. I have the same dictionary that I used in high school, and my son has 2 that he has bought over the years for school.
