Hangout for San Diego Nurses?

Published

Hi everyone,

My name is Matthew Lickona. I am a staff writer for the San Diego Reader, a weekly newspaper. I am writing a cover story on jokes. One key subject for jokes, I find, is death, and one place it finds excellent treatment is among medical folk. My friend who is a nurse (in New Mexico) - tells me that many nurses he has met have marvelous senses of gallows humor. I am wondering if anyone can suggest a place I might visit where nurses hang out - after shifts, say, or during mealtimes - so that I might ask them if they're up for talking about their favorite jokes and why they love them.

If there is any concern about my legitimacy, please visit http://www.sandiegoreader.com and search for my name. I've been with the paper for 14 years. My email is [email protected], should anyone wish to contact me that way.

I hope this is okay - I didn't think it fell under the allnurses.com ban on solicitation, since I'm not selling anything. My apologies in advance if this constitutes a misuse of this board.

Thanks for your time and consideration,

Matthew Lickona
