Dr. Tongue’s 3-D House Of Beef And Reptile Museum
So what happens when you get a state and a half away before you remember that you forgot to pack the camera? You tell yourself that you'll borrow your Mother In Law's camera and email pictures back to yourself. What do you do when you can't even remember to do that? You post with borrowed pictures of other peoples' turkey's →
It’s Called Character
Character is doing what's right when nobody is looking. -JC Watts- My sister Laura is married to a professional golfer. His name is JP Hayes. He did something the other day that everyone is talking about. He's been interviewed on ESPN and the Golf Channel. World News Tonight on ABC will talk about it this evening. The story on ESPN dot →
Become A Doctor, Online! Part 3
To fully appreciate this post; which is the 3rd chapter, you need to read this post first, and this post second to be up to speed. When we last left NukeDad, he was on his way home after an MRI on his knee. He was nursing a swollen, hobbled left knee and an inflamed, metal clamp filled nugget pouch. Let's rejoin the drama... Four days →
Online Medical Degree Part 2: The Musical
If you are just joining us, you will need to go and read this post first to get you up to speed. Where was I? Oh, yeah, almost killed...dodge ball....MRI, got it. So anyway, next Tuesday comes and I hobble myself into sub waiting room 4C in lobby number 5, level 3. The magazine selection is much better in lobby 2, →
Univ. Of Phoenix Called, Your Anesthesiology Doctorate Is Ready
Did I ever tell you about the time my Doctor almost killed me? Yeah, ICU for 3 days. The beginnings of the story are actually quite humorous...right up until the surgery and the near death experience. What happened, you ask? Well, let me tell you. It all started when a group of mid 30ish to 40 year old men thought →
Big Word Wednesday-Week 20
I know it's been a few weeks, but I started calling it "Week 1, 2, 3", or whatever at the beginning, so I'm not going to change it to "Edition" or "Volume" or "Number" or any of that stuff now. Just pretend that they run consecutively and we'll all be OK. Let's get to it. I have a question: Why →
Perspective
Some of you may have seen this already, but today was the first time for me. I thought I would share it with you as food for thought. 1958 vs. 2008 Scenario 1: Jack goes quail hunting before school, pulls into school parking lot with shotgun in gun rack. 1958 - Vice Principal comes over, looks at Jack's shotgun, goes to →
I Love That Song
Been thinking about music lately. I am, or was, quite the audiophile growing up. My record (yes, LP's) collection at one time was over 650 albums (vinyl) and over 260 CD's. I'm down to CD's now, as my sister kindly took the albums off of my hands when we moved. NukeMom wasn't crazy about having 6 scrap-wood crates of albums in →
The Other Unpaid Day Job
I'm up again over at Scrivel. It's been awhile since I've submitted over there; I'm surprised that Mr. Caslin kept me on the boards, to be honest. It's taken me some time to get the kids' schedules configured into a workable format. Now that football season is over, it should be a lot easier. Until basketball starts next week. Wrote the check →
Chickified Steak
I got tagged. I think they are called "meme's" and they are the Internet equivalent of the middle school slam book. Don't remember those? They were spiral notebooks with 2 columns on the first page; one for the boys, one for the girls. Each person signed their name next to a number and then ventured from page to page answering →
‘Cuz He’s TNT, He’s Dyn-O-Mite
When Nukeboy1 told me what he wanted to be for Halloween this year, I thought it was a great idea. His new found love for classic rock had steered him to AC/DC after I explained to him that Rock and Roll Ain't Noise Pollution. I also told him; It's a Long Way To The Top (If You Wanna Rock 'n →
