    Good evening. Work wasn't too bad. Started with 4:1 ratios, discharged 3 and got on in so wound up with only two patients by days end. At two years old my Ellie had a murmur, but...
  2. That Biden held up Keystone will be a weapon against him. No one is going to get the message she gave about them being answerable to stockholders making profits....
  3. I think people have taken notice of high corporate profits and CEO salaries during these times. Makes you wonder. I see today inflation reached another 40 year high but people who drive Volvos...
  4. Glad to hear they aren't complaining or whining like people with gas guzzlers that did it to themselves. They need to suck it up and continue to sacrifice and not complain even if they can't afford...
  5. Fair enough. I agree that most of us aren't that forward looking. We have to deal with our immediate needs of dealing with high gas prices, war, disease and just getting by. Telling...
  6. Okay person of that generation (don't want to violate the T.O.S). Forget that despite knowing gas prices will go up people are willing to have that happen to support Ukraine. I've heard that...
  7. I might be a little sensitive. Recently (before this conflict) I had to shut down a friend who always listened to my job stresses but always thought he was being helpful with a "well at least it's...
  8. Okay I guess it's fair to mock one segment of people complaining about rising gas prices. But I see a lot of shaming of people complaining or worried about gas prices....

    Medication Error

    The highlighted part is the important part. As long as you've learned the root cause and won't do it again you've learned the hard way like many of us do. You are not alone. If your nurse...
  10. It's not just whiny people with big trucks taking notice of high gas prices. I'm middle class, and while I understand that I'm not being bombed and forced to be a refugee, like I said, I reserve the...
  11. Nothing is 100% green and pure, or cheap. It pays to look at the total picture. Risks vs. benefits and which is better dumping tons of C02 pollution into the air or an alternative that has...
  12. Yes I expect them to complain about high gas prices, but aren't we all? I think you're mistaken that it's only those people. We all are complaining about gas prices. Also there seems to be...
  13. Yes, the ripple affect is far and wide and it does influence people's behavior and driving habits. Still people seem more than willing to take the hit for Ukraine, although oil prices were on the...
  14. He was brave in taking this option for humanity. Too bad it didn't work out for him. But advances are being made every
  15. I don't see how a responsible family driving a gas efficient car but struggling with rising gas prices is "pretty irrelevant". My point is that many people struggling with rising gas prices are...
  16. What about Toyota Corolla driving families making low wages? Care to hear about their struggles with high gas

    Good Morning! Joe, hope you enjoy the new phone. I have Samsung Galaxy and it's a good one. Ado, I'm sure you'll get a handle on your new job soon enough. A challenge can be good for the...

    President Biden thread

    https://foreignpolicy.com/2022/03/08/venezuela-maduro-sanctions-oil-deal-russia-war-ukraine-democracy-geopolitics/ Obviously there are problems with Venezuelan oil. They are a Russian ally and...
  19. I will take back my comment on "greed". I thought about it and I'm too much of a capitalist at heart to call it greed. But what was good for the stockholders at the time is now biting us in the butt...
  20. Wasn't big news and I can't even find that story on Google. So I don't think there was widespread blame on Trump for the weather, like there is say for high gas prices on a President. Just sayin'...
  21. During the Great Recession with the oil boom in North Dakota there were towns with negative unemployment rates while the rest of the country had high unemployment and much of the workers were from out...
  22. I don't think they are making that up. They are indeed drilling as much as they can with what they have and what the regulations allow. The article I posted above states they are ramping up...
  23. But the question I have is Biden standing in their way with a war on oil? https://www.politico.com/news/2022/03/07/oil-industry-production-hikes-russia-00014778 Here's an intesting...
  24. About the White House:...
  25. Thanks. I think the poster lives in Alaska where it might have been bigger news....
