  1. spooky spooky spooky

    During Vietnam War American trucks would broadcast via loudspeakers, to the North Vietnamese soldiers the sounds of ghosts. The Asians are more believing in ghosts; more hardcore believers (?)...
  2. hiccups

    Hi Karen, this is very interesting to me. Can you offer, in a few words, the mechanism that makes a hiccip occur at those intervals, as opposed to a "cough" responce that comes on all at once. What...
  3. Pot Smoking and Nursing

    Patients are our number one priority, at least theoriticly. Smokin dope is like one of those "abortion/euthinasia" polarizations. In my opinion, you can tell what is what about a person by their...
  4. Just Go Pee!

    Well, it's easy to take pssin for granted. Some folks can urinate without it being a problem, and it's tough. Plus, doesn't it feel good to get to go after you've held it in? I'm kidding
  5. Divorce And Affairs????

    This is for all the self-motivated, self-reliant, doer and shaker, nurses here who felt the power from within to complete nursing school without an "old man" or "old lady" in the picture. And to all...
  6. Divorce And Affairs????

    Believe it or not, I breath the same air you breath, and make energy from carbohydrates, proteins and lipids just like the rest of the world. I'm just another part of your world, and I'm happy to be...
  7. Nutrition courses in nursing school

    Hey Lausana - I think I love you too...in a Partridge Family kind of way :-) I'm sleeping and right in the middle of a good dream like all at once I wake up from something that keeps knocking at my...
  8. Nutrition courses in nursing school

    Monkey see - monkey eat :-) 1. Do you have a specific course in nutrition that is required, and if so how many credits and what is the title? 4 CREDITS - FOOD AND NUTRITION 2. If you do or do not, are...
  9. A squeaking heart

    Cindy....your post and web site reference is the greatest. However, the sounds, and I listened to them all, don't make the sound of my heart first thing in the morning. The sounds on the site sound...
  10. Divorce And Affairs????

    All this quadruple posting has got to stop....it's a waste of bandwidth. Micro, I do believe these folks are kidding around, and although I think it's nice for you to attempt to "take up" for me, I...
  11. Divorce And Affairs????

    I can't stop anyone if they want to cop my style, so don't you two be trying to pop no cheap shots at me. Your putting yourself down if you try to diss me, and it's not worth it. Don't start...
  12. Separating work from home life

    Brandy - Your a healthy and smart woman. Just drink plenty of water everyday, get plenty of sleep every nite, eat plenty of fresh fruits and veggies, and rev up your heart several times a week....
  13. Separating work from home life

    (fiction) After a long day at work, I check my "at work" brain at security and reclaim my "after work" brain. After the transfer is complete, I walk briskly to my car, and lock myself in. I sit...
  14. Separating work from home life

    Several classmates and I discussed this subject recently in our Food and Nutrition study group. A long time ago, physical stress was all our human bodies dealt with. In recent times, mental stress...
  15. Divorce And Affairs????

    All right Captain Heather !!!! You know I'm just kidding around with "re-tred." It's really a military term used to describe a person who has been demoted and lost rank, then gains it back again....
  16. Out of curiousity

    I want to gleefully and sincerely mention to indigent Paula the fact that I said "my" nursing school, and not "all" nursing schools. The increased solar radiation and heat may invigorate many...
  17. Divorce And Affairs????

    It's hard for Mario to consider people like hollow chocolate Easter bunnies. Maybe your refering to "bedroom demeanour" My sister marries guys like this. Beauty does, truely, lie in the eyes of...
  18. Divorce And Affairs????

    Are all nurses married or divorced? Let's here it for the real INDIVIDUALS out there who understand what self-reliance is. Let's here it for those folks who enjoy having 100% of their own...
  19. Divorce And Affairs????

    Hey Rachael, I dated a woman, three years ago, who was taking nursing prereq's (chem). She wanted to "zip" and "unzip" our dates like they were a computer file. She had kids too, a single mom. Boy,...
  20. Out of curiousity

    Please don't make me blush - I change my avatar because it's easy to. And I really look similiar, but different, everyday! I checked out a digital camera from the campus library aphew weeks ago, and...
  21. lack of support among nurses?!

    Nursing is my vocation, and I am in this all the way all ready. Mario has never felt so right about a career. And being in my "mid-thirties" I know what a whim is, and is not. This medium has...
  22. Out of curiousity

    I presented this last month, after about a dozen people here PM'ed me and growled at my thoughts as being "not qualified" and "lacking real experience." I love this board, and am a nursing student....
  23. A squeaking heart

    What i learned about heart sounds and sleep When you sleep, your laying down horizontal, for me, 6-8 hours. The heart sac then goes vertical and so do all your veins, when you stand up. That could...
  24. Is getting married in nursing school a bad idea?

    I envy you, and wish I could find someone to marry. Being a singularity makes it okay to not be married. When people get married, they change in ways Mario does not want to change into. My best to...
  25. A squeaking heart

    Thank you all for helping and acknowledging. Somebody handed Mattsmom and sledgehammer because I never considered this pulmonary alveoli before she nailed it. A small depression, sac, or vesicle,...
