HAHAH! yes! Apalachin ER. Oh that is the BEST skit on SNL ever!

When I worked in interventional radiology, the MRI tech came to get me one day, and was laughing really hard.(WE ALL HAVE THOSE UNPROFESSIONAL MOMENTS AT WORK.) Anyway, this kid came in and said he was having "member pain" so they did a lower abdominal MRI. Come to find out the kid had part of a wire hanger shoved up his urethra. The tech asked the kid why it was there and the kid said "oh I must have swallowed it". (poor kid) So they sent the kid off to the ER. To make a long story short, we did a little research, and finally the ER docs got back with us. The reason the kid (and supposedly other kids) put wire hangers into their urethras is to recieve instant orgasm. They place the wire hanger up the urethra and let it hit the prostate gland. Then they put a battery on the other end of the wire hanger and some how get an electric shock, which provides stimulation to the prostate gland. ANYWAY!!!!!!!!! I'm just sayin'....LOL! I APPLAUD YOU KID!

When do you become elligable for the cpne? after you take nc 7?

I'm not sure if this is the right forum to be postint this topic in, but I had a few questions about the Excelsior College CPNE. I am about to take nusing concepts 4 in a few weeks. I was looking on the EC website today and it said once I became elligable to take the CPNE I would have to wait 6-8 months for a test date. I'm assuming this is because of the large amount of students that need to test. I was wondering if anyone had any comments on this topic. When dou you become elligable, and how long did it take for you to get a test date after you had turned in you application? I'm ready to get this done! Any advice is greatly appreciated. Also, how can I start studying now for the CPNE? I've heard there is a majic grid.
