Specializes in special needs: children, afc.

a good friend emailed me the best nursing jokes i'd ever heard, so in my quest for more more more, i hit up a search engine for nursing humor and couldn't get registered fast enough! found nursetoons which i've shared with, well, everyone in my nursing class which keeps stress down (according to one of our instructors) by using laughter as a relief... keep smiling y'all and sharing, love allnurses!

google search.

Was looking for stuff to help me with a class. Saw one of the threads. Read some.

Then read some more.

And then kept on reading - completely forgot about the assignment for class! :rolleyes:

And the rest, as they say, is history :)

I was looking up 'infrared nurse tracking systems' on yahoo.

Your few threads on the topic was the only nurse's opinions on the diabolical devices out there. The rest of the online stuff was advertising the devices to hospitals and how 'wonderful' they are.

But then, I started looking around. And the site was too neat to let go. I started using it to bounce off other nursing subjects I was interested in.

And then, I started commenting.

And now, well, y'all haven't shut me up yet . . .

~faith,

I was sooo excited the summer before I started nursing school, I was always googling nursing stuff just to feel like I was a part of it! I found some funny stuff from allnurses that I read, and I was hooked....my favorite thing to do was to find all the yucky stuff posted, and read it out loud to my hubby just to gross him out! I tell EVERYBODY about this site, I LOVE it!!!:clown:
