My osteochondrosis tortures me a bit. -_- Does anyone have a good joke for me? I need urgently something to laugh.

Ground beef.

She said a GOOD joke. :)

Try this one:

The old couple was sitting in Church,listening to the sermon. Suddenly she leans over,gently grabs his arm,and whispers in his ear. "Honey,I just farted quietly,what should I do"?
"Put a new battery in your hearing aid" he said.

So I decided to get out my laptop that I haven't used in a long time. The charger is extremely hot to the touch and its slower than a turtle. I think its time to upgrade. Really want a Mac Book but I don't have $1,500 laying around the house to use :sad:

Bad joke from the Seventies?

The old couple were becoming weekly regulars taking a trip with the wheelchair van from their nursing home to the medical building and back that afternoon. One day, noting that the husband didn't actually use a wheelchair at the home, the attendant had to ask them what was wrong.

"Oh, nothing. Chester and I are gong to the sex therapist".

"Sex therapist? At your age?".

(Blushing)"Well, yes. The home won't let us share a room, we can't afford a taxi to a motel room, but Medicare covers this from door to door. Let's not be late for the appointment, please?".

Just a "good on you" to EMTLIFE-ers

I was thinking of all I've learned was not true from "getting into it" here.

  • The xyphoid process actually isn't exceptionally dangerous, if at all, during CPR.
  • Indiscriminate use of long spine boards is harmful and can be dangerous to the patient.
  • Prehospital oxygen isn't harmless.
  • Prehospital EMS workers are far, far more likely to die from a work-related traffic accident than a work-related assault.
  • Medical helicopter rides within a certain radius take longer to arrive and are nowhere near as safe as ground transport.
  • Local appearances here to the contrary, non-government ambulance workers are not predominantly female.
  • Wide-open IV's of crystaloids to boost blood pressure/volume in trauma is not a panacea.
  • Not all prehospital EMS workers are nascent losers, boozers, and sad-sacks, some (many) are smart, looking forwards and have professional concerns same as in-house staff.

Keep up the good work everyone.;)

If you can find one of these, I really recommend it. I bought mine on sale for $500 and it's great. Fantastic specs for the price (or the price it was).
Windows 8 is a little tricky at first, but I love it now.

Im thinking I'm probably gonna go with something around the 13-15 inch screen. I'm hoping to stay away from Windows 8. I already have an iPad (windows 8 looks better set up for table use). I just need something a little smaller and lighter that I can do research and write papers with. I don't play any PC games so graphics aren't a huge issue.

There are some pretty nice ones (for what I need) in the $500 range. They also have a backlit keyboard which is really nice.

Have you looked at chromebooks? they're similar to netbooks, but better processors and a little bit more high end. pretty cheap, too

Nothing like getting pulled out of bed at 3:30 AM for an emergent SOB (get your mind out of the gutter: shortness of breath, not son of a :censored::censored:) only to arrive and have the patient decide to refuse treatment/transport. And justifiably so - there was nothing wrong w/ said patient.

:angry:

Sounds like a pretty standard 911 call...

I love coming home from work, hearing a shotgun go off next door then having my neighbor from that house, high as a kite, come in my yard and start accusing my roommate...he decided he wasn't going to win and took off running when I walked out in my work uniform.

I love having to talk to the 5-0 when I'm off duty, not.

One more reason to finish saving for my Glock 23 :D

Hey, Windows 8 is good. Super fast and streamlined. The UI just isn't very friendly at first. lol

I second the chromebook.

Also, I downloaded Star Wars The Old Republic now that it's free to play. I've made a huge mistake

I'll never go back. I think it's sad how much JaGEx has changed.
