the 100% directionless thread

Any one else sick of this volcano in iceland? has it effected the u.s much? every other day the airports are shut down here, im getting worried as in a few weeks im due to go to new york and florida for 2 weeks on holiday(or as you guys call it vacation)
 
Hasn't made a dent in the US other then the incessant news reports on it...
 
hope my holiday insurance covers volcano's and acts of god! i actually dont care about the money, just want to get away and enjoy my 2 weeks off!

you should of seen the news papers here in the last 2 weeks, pictures of the airports empty one day and then flooded with people the next trying to get out of the country. people getting boats and trains across europe taking days while the plane trip only took a few hours. was like 2012 beginning....

Oh no maybe it is???
 
Am I allowed to say I hate my soc/psy prof? Cause I do. I love my chemisty and advanced fire administration profs though.

I have disliked every psych/soc professor I've had.... nothing against psych/soc people I guess but WTF... My "favorite" was the one who actually had the following question on his final exam, which was similar to many other questions on the exam (no joke average of half of questions on every exam were about his irrelevant, inappropriate personal stories):

What happened on Dr. Suchandsuch's (professor) first date?
a) he scored!
b) he didn't get anything
c) he knocked a girl up
d) He chickened out

Scathing course evaluation. Scathing.
 
Wow, just wow.

Well I'm glad I'm not the only one who dislikes my prof.......

On a completely different subject. I get to sleep in till 0630 tomorrow. For the first time in like 10 days I don't have to be up at some ungodly hour like 0430. WooHoo!!!
 
Ugh thanks for rubbing it in. Alarm is set for 0430. It is currently 2345 and I'm studying for my 0800 CNA practical tomorrow...

1) Explains procedure, speaking clearly, slowly and directly, maintaining face-to-face contact whenever possible. 2) Privacy is provided with a curtain, screen, or door. 3) I fall asleep because studying for my CNA practical is inconceivably tedious. 4) Signaling device is within reach and bed is in low position. 5) Washes hands.
 
you forgot identify yourself and the patient...

Mountain! Where you been?

I was just think about you the other day. We are finally getting our County HA rescue team together. Our first classes are May 15th and 16th. I have already got my NFPA Operator in that stuff, but I am taking them anyhow since it has been a year since I used any of it.

How is the wtx down there? Snow gone I hope! :P

Contrary to what the Papers are saying, I am alive and well.

Snow is melting and will be nowhere clear until probably mid June. It seems that one week wewould have 70 degree weather and the next snow down to 2000 feet. It sucked! One of the few good weekends we had all last month was perfect becasue it was the weekend I recerted my SRT.

And that has been my life for the last 5 months. Planned Medical Classes were all cancelled due to budget cuts. I worked too much and had to deal with too mcuh snow. And I have been devoting as much time to training as possible. I just took over the Training Officer Position for the Team and have been working on Swiftwater Training, Wilderness Medical Training, GIS Training, Mantracking Training, Recertifying for our Rope Rescue Team, Training the Dog, etc... But I have been around. I check the forums every day and ignore most threads... :P

15th and 16th huh? Nice. We have a fund raiser scheduled for the 15th, GIS Training that evening, Swiftwater Training on the 16th, Helicopter Training (with flight time) on the 22nd, and Dive Training on the 23rd... And we are working on some other trainig for the next few months. Oh, and Boat Patrol is trying to bring some of our people over to ride "shotgun" with Deputies since the budget cuts also mean fewer Deputies to patrol our 6 lakes... something I am considering...

Yesterday morning we got toned out for a 36 yof with an eyelash in her eye.:rolleyes: As I walked past my bosses office he said "Apparently we are running a mobile eye clinic now......." She was a WADSHS pt. The Peoples Republic of Washington has now switched the medical papers to a medical card that looks like a credit card so it is now even easier to use.:wacko:

Don't get me wrong, there is definately a place fot state healthcare, but those who abuse the system drive me crazy. It is unfortunate that those who do abuse it give those who use it as it was intended a bad name.
 
In todays "It's not a bug [side effect], it's a feature" column, apparently SSRIs can be used (off label) to treat premature ejaculation.
 
Naw... catching up on the psych pharm lectures I didn't go to...
 
So like, when transporting code while you have a patient being bagged in the back, who's O2 Sat is 80's... You will get stuck at a rail road crossing.... :ninja:

This reminds me of the footage of the train crashing into the engine parked on the crossing.
