Its been a long time since I’ve been on here and I’m not sure who still reads it, but I for some, slightly nostalgic reason, have not only missed this, but what to start blogging again.

71 years ago today.
Today marks the 71st anniversary of The Wizard of Oz. The initial release might have only broughtin a whopping $3mil,(which might be a lot for the time, but minimal when the production cost was at $2,777,000)but the film has gone down as cult classic and a must see.
I can’t say I remember where I was the first time I watched The Wizard of Oz, but I can remember where I was the first time I...

It's all new to me
So this post stems from the fact that I was re-blogged today. I think it was my first time, I am no longer virgin to the re-blogging. Anyway, as it turns out when someone is not following you, a little blue box appears that states that you have been re-blogged, someone likes a blog of yours, or what ever else the big blue box of information is out to convey. But I didn’t get the Blue Box...

Quote of the day
The Sudafed Hit List
Where does all your information go after the lady behind the counter trades you a box of Sudafed for it. I think the only bit of information you don’t hand over is you mothers maiden, but then again they don’t really need that to track you down these days anyway. Soon they’ll start asking for a finger print and retina scan.
I guess with all the Sudafed I buy they put my name...
Getting old and being treated young.
I just found myself congratulating an elderly patient for going to the bathroom. And next to me was a nurse talking to her in the nurses baby voice. And while all this is going on it occurs to me that all of the elderly patients we have, mainly the ones that slipping into an altered mental status, are always treated in the way that you would treat a small child, “Did you just go to the...
Why can't I just cheat?
So while reading over my Girlfriends blog I had a revelation, why not just reblog everything that my girlfriend blogs. I mean, if i want to share with my other couple readers what i spend my off time doing, then what better way then to just let you read what she puts down. It far easier for me, and shes much better with words than I am. Along with punctuation, spelling, and grammar, and all...
I might have 3. Which is kinda better than 1.
Forgive me tumblr, for it has been 3 months since my last blog.
I keep telling myself that I’m gonna get back up on the blog horse, but even though I do have some free time throughout the day, I still can’t manage to sit at my computer or pick up my phone(thanks to iPhone app) to type even just a few words, or even post one simple song. I, however, have tentatively added 2 new...

Sometimes It's a Test
I love my job, and I like most of the people I work with. Mondays are good, I work with a competent person, whom I am not babysitting, we get a good flood of calls, and for the most part everything goes smoothly. We always run into a few snags in our plan for a good day, but its never really anything severe. Dispatch pretending they don’t know what it’s like to be in the field, or...

Only in New York
Ive seen a lot of strange things, and some absolutely fascinating ones, but New York really takes the cake as far as over the top experiences.
New York offers quite a bit of characters, from the naked cowboy in times square, to the crazy midget that yells at you about not giving him any money in central park. and even though you will come across a celebrity or two on your way home from school,...
Is it really that disgusting to eat on the train?
YES!!!
So this person clearly goes out of his way to find, and photograph, people eating on and around the subway. And I’m not sure that i can say he is wrong in his doing.
I do believe that maybe he goes a little past acceptable, but dam it, he proves a good point. Maybe its just me, but it is disgustingly clear how filthy the subway platforms are at first sight when walking down...

Opening the doors of opportunity.
While waiting for my patient to finish up his procedure I decided that I would see what new applications were awaiting me in the jungle of iPhone apps. Never did I imagine that the little gem behind the door would be none other than tumblr. Now I can blog from anywhere, at anytime. Like now, driving my patient home, bloging about bloging at each red light, until the car behind me honks. Oh...

Why A new year? Didn't the last just end?
It’s not only a new year, but a new decade.
The new year has gone a long way since its original creation. It originally begun wi th the Mayan calendar where the year began the beginning of march, however, it was the 11th month, January, where the consuls of ancient Rome assumed the government. Through out the years the calendar was changed by several governmental powers to include...

What happened to the "One Piece At A Time...
If you’re anything like me then you watch movies or see the president drive by in a fancy car and ask yourself, “What happens to that car after they’re finished using it?” Ok, so I’ve really never asked that question, but now that I did a tiny bit of research on the Cadillac made for Johnny Cash I posted in my last link, I’ve come to find some very interesting...

A Great Christmas In A Not So Great Truck
Where to begin? Kara and I had planned a trip to Woodstock New York over the Christmas weekend (Yes, we are still here today). We left on Thursday with a plan to take a cab into Jersey to pick up a rental car. I realize that there are closer places, but the cheapest one we could find was at a location called “Rent-A-Wreck”. And boy let me tell ya, the name fits them better than...

Is it art?
While we’re on the subject of art I would like to honor an artist who asked the same question I have been asking for years. Only he asked it about 90 years before I did.
Marcel Duchamp, upon his arrival into the US, said that American Art was the sewer of Modern Art. And i’m not completely sure he was that far off.
Marcel Duchamp was a French American artist that associated with the...
