I was told that since I run the agency FB page, I am also the PIO. So I went to a PIO class, where I learned (among other things) that fortunately the PIO is not supposed to really do interviews on camera but rather coordinate them. Nobody ever listens to me...here I am on the damn evening news.

Part of the deal with doing this stuff is no damn ice cream. My part time job still holds me accountable... rest assured.

Any of our kind associates on here from The Great White North taken—or know of anyone in Canada who’s taken—the AIME course? If so, was it any good?
I booked marked it to my favorites on my laptop as it has some worthwhile items on it. Unfortunately, it seems exclusive to Canada only.
I’m trying to find a reliable comparison of airway courses and see if I can pitch one to my programs managers. I know Walls’ course will bring theirs to your site (for a nominal fee of course), and I also know that there may be one or two other courses available in The States worth mentioning.

Tosh, Isaacs, and Nowell on the Tailgater make a deep Spring cleaning tolerable.

Holidays are the days things get real slow here....usually.

Go to Med school then come to Baltimore and apply to the Hopkins tactical fellowship. Used to work with some of these guys. They also have a few PA's who work for them and deploy with the Maryland State Police, but don't know of any NP's in either program. Doctor Tang is a pretty badass dude and has his hands in all kinda federal LE stuff as well.

Find Bonjo Batoon (his real name) on FB. He’s a CRNA at Shock Trauma who does all kinds of stuff with MSP.
I think he is one of the people I've watched airway videos from.

The last year or so working hospital, private and now 911 I've found it slows on holidays but the calls are more legit than typical days.

Sundays and holidays they wait until about 2230 to call after their day is done.
Very true. Only 4 calls last night, but legit assault (possible subdural bleed) and legit drunk TC (had to cut the entire driver’s section to extricate).
