I haven't seen him post for 5 minutes and I'm worried sick about him.
Anyone know if he's ok?

Nurses Goomba and Pennyaline have the forceps at the ready. Just need to

Oh hell no. If you're my patient, I'm drawing the blood. I can do it
with my eyes shut (seriously. No, SERIOUSLY!) I do most of my blood
testing arterially.... we don't need no stankin' lights!)
Just remember- this will hurt you more than it hurts me.

Honey, I could find a vein. I have to find veins on 1 pound babies,
and I do it and get the IV in. I can draw blood from those veins too.

See.. that's the beauty of being able to stick arteries instead
Way juicier than veins and a lot easier to find. Of course I can only
"take" blood via an art stick, but can't give you anything that way.
Oh wait! We'll just drop a central line in.... that's the ticket.

Yeah? But you don't do adults. I'll be sure to request you the next

It took you this long? LOL

I'll never forget. I replied to a post by Ed Pawlowski some years 3 ago?
Sqwertz appeared on the scene, deleted Ed's attributions and accused me of
replying to SHIM instead or some such nonsense. In an effort to be tactful
I said I had replied to Ed, not to him. He accused me of lying. I'd never
heard of Sqwertz, this came out of the blue, as trolls are wont to do.

Sqwertz became my new Sheryl Rosen; dogging and digging at my every post.
(I should be flattered to warrant so much attention.) He morphs constantly.
An annoying, albeit very long term TROLL.

OB Food: Maybe Trolls like waffles. Mom has a waffle iron, circa 1950's,
still in good working order. Waffles for breakfast! I really must wean Mom
off that Mrs. Butterworth's stuff, though. Pure cane syrup is tasty; Maple
is devine but that awful fake maple is horrid.

Ordinarily I try not to get involved with the bottom feeding scum suckers
like Squirtie pants. But anyone who munges their address as often as he
does for the sole purpose of evading killfiles is a wanton troll. There is
no other reason for this behavior. He is an utterly anal retentive
throwback with a Oedipus complex who feels being a jackass on a newsgroup
makes him more of a "real man."

Cross his mighty path and he'll swipe the bagels from your shopping cart.

wartz,

I'll bet she never... (nevermind). Hah!. Loser! Face up to it!!!

I can cook as well as you can. Better even (judging from your a.b.f pics).
What I choose to eat (and not being an asshole like you, come to think of
it) makes a big difference. You're probably a puddle of fat.

I'm sorry I wasted a post about your sorry ass.

Lissen, you guys (Goomba, Michael, Steve, Christine) -- if I get you a

a couple others discussing their Big Decks. At least that's how much

Oh yeah.. nothing like bringing in shit for veins and expecting
miracles? And people who say things like you do make it really hard on
the nurse. Do you think that sort of infused antagonism makes your veins
any easier to find? I'd love to see you work under that pressure
sometime.....

Everyone knows doctors are the worst at venipuncture. They don't do it
often enough to keep their skills up.
And some people just do NOT have veins and it makes the task all the

LOL, sure... describe patients anyway you'd like..

I had this odd (wienie) of a patient a few years ago who for some reason
whined and wimper if you even went for a vein, but could just about
sleep through an art stick. Odd huh? Defies logic.

Nurses like to think that they are experts of finding veins and
inserting needles and it's usually true but I've unfortunately
experienced a number of occasions where more than one try was
necessary or blood leaked into the tissue. On the other hand, I
know the little finger-stick will not hurt but it is hard to
convince myself even after uncounted samples and I still often
tense up.

That's why working ittybitty babies keeps up my skills. I am good at

When I buy jars of sliced jalapenos I have noticed that the Old El Paso
brand or most of the Texas brands are pretty mild...but Trappey's from
Louisiana are kick ass hot!

Chocolate bread? A dessert bread I take it? Or is it an unsweetened bread?
Went to a tea this weekend where one of the ladies brought little
sandwiches made with store bought bread that contained swirled colors in
the slice. Very odd, esp. because I can't imagine how much dye it took
to get such a deep color concentration. But thankfully it just tasted
like white bread.

SideNote on nurses and humor: Bill Cosby is going to be our
entertainment at this years NTI. A couple of years ago it was Wayne
Brady and I don't think I've *evah* laughed so hard in my life as I did
with him. He has a great understanding of nursing humor

Sort of in-between. I have been looking for a recipe like this, as I
had one several years ago in the Los Angeles area, made by La Brea
Bakery. It also had dried cherries in it.
I can probably find Nancy Silverton's book Breads from La Brea...which
has it in it, but this is convenient now.

It wasn't really sweet, but enough chocolate and slight sweetness to
complement the chocolate. It is a yeast bread.

Of course, now that I am going to be in the Los Angeles area, I will
try to find it again.

Nursing/medical humor is something else. In some of the worst,
busiest, craziest nights, the humor would ratchet up...become totally
off the wall...sidesplittingly funny. I have been in situations
where you are doing everything you can to save a baby/person and you
are so incredibly busy..and people would be making these off the wall
jokes, remarks, etc. I think it kept us sane.
We were never like that though..in case people wonder, if other than
medical folks were around. But in a NICU, in situations like that, it
was just us medical folks...
I have sometimes laughed so much that I almost wet my pants.

You Loisianians are always trying to bash Texas every little
chance you get.

Nice try, but Old El Paso is made in Minnesota, not Texas. And
Trappey's hasn't been produced in Louisiana for several years.

So there! :-P

No, make it Big Brother, nominate both Steve and Andy, then "back door"
Sheldon. Or maybe Greggie would most like to do that. Or Lou.

Not even close. Andy's been in my killfile for a long time. Steve, not.

Depends on when. I've already got three trips lined up between now and
June 1. And then there's the Festival of Nations gig in early May. And
Koko may be coming up for a visit. I ain't got no money, honey!

Re the bread; Man, I've gotta quit making that stuff. I am not
normally a heavy bread eater. I've mixed 7 batches of dough in the last
2-1/2 weeks and we've eaten most of it -- I've maybe given 1/4 of it
away. I cannot keep doing this (eating that much bread). I've been
baking baguettes from the European Peasant Bread dough.

Ow. The idea of back dooring Sheldon is not a pretty one...
