You know, when it comes to my bowels, I'm as regular as clockwork- as loose as a goose.

I first had a small bout of constipation while traveling on a train from Anomaly to New York- a 24 hour train ride, back in 1982.

Boy, I could have used a Train Nurse!

We didn't pinned when we graduated. We got bumper stickered.

Poopycat and I were talking about wearing caps in the Old Days of Nursing when she said

My cap looked like a Big Mac box!

Well, she showed me a photo from the time, and I had to agree!

Then sevensonnts chimed in and said

Some caps were just plain amusing. Our nursing supervisor back in the dawn of time wore one that looked like an ice cream cone went splat upside down on top of her head.

From this photo of your supervisor, sevensonnets, yours was a good description!

Looks just like her but her cap was more of a pointy ice cream.
