These replies are too funny! Thank you for giving me the 1st good laughs I've had all week! My family members are looking @ me like I'm crazy, I'm laughing so hard! (Ooh my side hurts, my side-in my Donkey voice)
Thanks for your reply, but really, I was just curious. If u look @ my personal info you will see that I am not new to allnurses & that I have been a nurse for awhile...it was just something I had never heard of, something new, so I put the questi...

I live in the Boro. It's true that there is some crime, but no more than any other city that I have lived in(& I've stayed in a few). From what I can see, Nashville has way more crime than the Boro, but, depending on where you decide to stay, it ...
