Should I be a nurse: I am going to scream!:banghead: How in the HE double hockey sticks are we supposed to know what is right for you?? I am sorry if I sound rude not my intent, but it just makes me wonder, do you have to have all your decisions made by another person if so you ARE going to have a hard time being a burse. I am a EMT and if I had to ask someone to do XYZ before I do what I know needs to be done, I would have a poor patient outcome. Sorry but this is getting old

I love High Anxiety - it's ridiculously underrated. The more Hitchcock you know the better it is :D

I recall one scene where Brooks is running from the birds. He runs into a shed, and all seems fine until they're crapping on his head through a hole in the roof.

He says, "Damn! I just got this suit out of the cleaners."

Lol. I need to find the DVD somewhere and watch it again.

I agree, very underrated and I think perhaps that was because it was not broad enough. Too subtle for the American audiences? The brits (and the Aussies) get the softer humor.

Specializes in Emergency.

"How bout some more beans Mr Taggart?"

"I'd say you boys have had about enough!"

And I use "What in the wide world of sports is going on here" frequently. I have also used the "but this is my shooting hand" line when someone has asked me if I'm good at starting lines.

We need to hit the Holy Grail and the Princess Bride too.

And when a pt and/or family is really stressing me, I've been known to mutter "But I'm tryin' Ringo. I'm tryin' real hard"
