the 100% directionless thread

I am the 911 Queen. That is all. And I thought I might suck at this job...
 
I hate being sick on vacation! And the hotel's internet is fussy, so I keep getting kicked off EMTLife.:sad:
 
So... hurt my back yesterday when my partner decided to drop a 300lb+ patient all the way to the floor without letting me know...



Still aches.
 
Just bought a Barne's and Noble Nook. I'm liking it so far... let's see how well it can keep me entertained.
 
I love mine! I've had it about 2 weeks

I lament the future loss of the tactile sensation of turning pages, the joys of having PB & J and little noteoids spread around the book illustrating the text and getting a book from a friend that I KNOW is exceptional because it's the rattiest looking thing on the shelf! (Bookshelves, Libraries, soon gone forever??)

You can also throw a book at your partner at low replacement cost rather than destroying your whole Library in one motion.

And yet, it's because of innovations like this that folks like y'all get to learn from my mistakes and explorations. I spent a good 15 years trying to get traditional publishers to publish my works which, at the very least have value to medics. The Powers that Be (were) wouldn't accept it. In that way, it's a form of censorship because THEY decide what YOU get to see.

Today, I can talk to people like you exactly as I want to, so on this one I have to side with the new and upcoming generation.

I know what you mean but for me, I'll always have my books that I can go relax in the bathtub with after a long day & not worry about destroying my library if I drop it ;)

That's a good point that needs to be addressed here.

How do you run a Nook Bathtub-Electrocution call?
 
w00t!!! I just got hired by WA DNR as a contract fireline medic for a type II in my county. And being type II it is a Fed deal and pays reeeeeally good.
 
Good work lights :)

Brown feels fantastic because he threw away his cancer, heart disease and death causing diet and is encourgaing all to read Eat to Live by Joel Fuhrman, MD.

Brown doesn't feel fantastic about the Tall Blacks loosing at basketball against Lithuiana .... I mean GAH!

Everytime Lifeguards for Life talks with MR. Brown, Lifeguards For Life always ends up talking in the 3rd person and feeling quite silly
