Military time: After 12 noon, add 1 for each hour. 1 pm = 1300 hours, 2 pm = 1400 hours.

As for knowing how to get every state benefit ever invented -- will you research Wisconsin and give me some tips?!?!?!

PS With CPR I ALWAYS "break a rib" the first thrust... oh well.

I always heard it is normal to break ribs..it gives better pushing

I'm so happy you're doing great. It sounds like an interesting adventure.

my classmates are, unfortunately, young women who are taking this class so that they can keep their "state benefits" and continue to live in a manner that is high above mine. you should see their cars! i drive a '99 chevy truck. not one of them has a car less than two years old. they are all on welfare. they know every benefit and every way to get it that exists. talk about me being shocked! and every one of them have from one to six children. not being judgmental, but WOW....and they all have medicad and pay a small co-pay for meds.

don't know about other states, but i'd say that Okies need to speak to our senators and such and get some changes STAT.

just wait until i have to bathe my dummy. they are anatomically correct. BUT, remember when i took care of Ralph. well, he named his "goober" and one day as i was bathing him, i asked him if he was a certain political party member....he grinned and said, "i'll tell you after you've finished with goober"........we died laughing. he had absolutely no problems at all with what had to be done to and with him. at least not anything that was "visible".

but i'm worried about the ones who aren't in their right minds. i understand that they really make advances and such........ i guess i'll wash with one hand and fend them off with the other. clinicals start tomorrow and we're outta there on the 10th or 11th!!!!!!!!!!

this report was just now on CNBC...men sitting there, titles under their names.......no reporter making this up......FYI. p
