The more things.....

Having gone to Kingman and back several times now it's interesting to see how people act towards you when you show up after having been gone for several months.

1st time, like you never left. You chat life is ok


2nd time you return, People are more chatty.... folks offer to buy you food and/or alcohol and they aren't related to you.

3rd times + (and after 6 months)-- where the hell have you been and how have you been doing? You moved? holy shit your kidding! Where too? What are you doing ? Are you married?

The constant barrage of questions.... It's different but it's just a fact of life coming from a small town.

Of course it is heart warming to know that the girl scout troop that is in my old neighborhood was sad to see me go... Mainly because I bought so many cookie's.

Now for phase two of my world domination plan... yoda at his wisest.

Bring the pain (again)

First item of business.... for all of you who were watching the super bowl with me.  There is no "Code black" at SHC.  When you google the term "code black in hospitals"  you get no one defintion.  In short, it's a nice bit of hollywood fiction that was probally explained once you tuned into the show.   It does appear that more then a few hospitals out there use code black but there is no one standard definiton.

For all of you who didn't watch the superbowl with me... well now you know what we talk about when I watch the superbowl. Hospital codes... also known as work!

Ok we really didn't do much work talk as we were all to busy critquing the commercials and some of the officating... yes folks you know it's bad when I'm going "hey that wasn't a touch down was it?"

I was sorry to see the Seahawks lose but at the same time I'm glad the cardinals won't be facing the "Defending world champions".  Not that it would make a diffrence one way or another.  

You know it's bad when all you want out of your team is a season at .500.  That is all I'm after, no playoffs, no superbowl.  Just a plain old average year.   If they could do that I would be happy enough. Of course that would also require a team that could show up for more games then not.   Lets face it even when the cardinals do show up they tend to be not quite with it.

Here is something for you all to chew on... I wonder if there is a significant bump in the number of births that occour in about mid November of each year. 

food for thought.
