From the great movie Ruthless People:

I get that it is supposed to be satire, but the pancreas does not produce bile. Bile is produced in the liver and stored in the gallbladder. Among other functions of the pancreas, it produces digestive enzymes notable Amylase (digests sugars), Lipase (digests fat), and Protease (digests protein). The pancreas and the biliary duct share the same exit into the intestine, called the Common Bile Duct, so perhaps this is where the confusion comes from.

Common bile duct is named common because it is formed by the cystic duct(connects the gall bladder to the bile duct) entering the duct formed from the fusion of the left and right hepatic duct not because it is "common" with the pancreatic duct. Typically(unless there is an anatomic variant--which happens rarely) the CBD and pancreatic duct are separate until they nearly exit the ampulla. Even the picture below is not fully accurate because the common channel is shorter than depicted.

How many trans people does it take to change a globe?

Just one, but first they need two electrical engineers to come in and make sure the globe is really broken, then they need to sit in the dark for three years to make sure they really want it changed.

Pancreas.
Islets of Langerhans, dude.
Insulin FTW.

Bah!
I love that.

I use the above as an example of serendipity in scientific discovery, leading with what I like to refer to as Pasteur's Dictum.

A number of significant discoveries in my line of work were made quite by accident, you see...
(I made a couple of 'em myself, along the way)
