DMU-OMC Class of 2005

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
KidT
Glad you were able to call and can't wait to meet you personally.

Here's an additional suggestion from my wife and I, you might consider buying your household furniture and materials here.... Walmart Supercenter, Sam's Club, and Target are only a few hop and a scotch away from your complex.... It would probably be cheaper to buy new things than taking things over.... Although, you can't beat the sentimental values of your own stuff now.

So reconsider having to take stuff here.... We came with nothing but books, clothes, computer, printer, and the basic essentials.

Okay, give me a ring if you need any help.... That offer still stands.... Later dude 😎
 
Hey KIDT, you might want to consider buying furniture from some of the students leaving for rotations. I am selling an entertainment center if you are interested.
I have a question. Where are the women in your class of 2005? So how do the prospects of your female counterpart look?
 
They all left for summer vacation. 😀
 
Ryan, I am interested. Email me and let me know what it's like!

PO - I got a moving truck, so I'm golden! Thanks for all the help!
 
There is interest going on about documentary of osteopathic med school students.... I was wondering if any previous students of DMU reading this can help me....

Does DMU have a PR department? Do they have filming equipment? Who should I talk to regarding possible funding, rights, etc?

I'll be pursuing on it my own, but would like any input from my fellow upperclassmen/women.... Thanx
 
We are dropping behind here peeps!!! 😀

Anyone else interested in being a part of a documentary?
 
Hello All! Just thought I would say a quick hello. I found this nifty internet station with computers and free net access in a mall. My friend and I are supposed to be on our way back to camp but what they don't know won't hurt them 🙂 I think my job this summer would panic Josh; I have been driving nearly everyday (and I'm talking 15 passenger vans in downtown Albany). I drew the line on driving to NYC. I didn't get a chance to read all the pages you guys have posted but..wow! I hear it is kind of damp and cool in Iowa. We are in the 90's and my tan is coming along well 🙂 Have a great summer, maybe I'll cruise through this mall again in a few weeks 😎
 
Po - what do you mean documentary? Let me know what you are going to do!
 
Hello Katie!!! 😀
I'm not sure whether or not you'll see this but just wanted to wish you a good and safe trip. By the way, it's been really hot here lately!!!

Later
 
KidT,

There's a few people in SDN that's trying to organize a documentary with AOA or PBS. Something similar to following a bunch of Harvard med students.... I'm not sure if you ever watched that one.... but folks are seriously considering it. As far as whether or not it flies... I'm not sure. But someone already contacted the PR's of AOA and they think it's a great idea. Funding is a question and they will get back to us.....

Oh well, it would be nice to get some PR for osteo.... 😎
 
Could be cool - let me know - count me in.
 
WELCOME TO PAGE 45!!! 😀

So anyone know anything regarding starting a proposal for a documentary?

later 😎
 
KidT, I emailed you something.... Need an opinion about something... Thanx!!!
 
Are you online? If so, log off. I'm going to call you.
 
Thanks KidT for all the ideas.... I wrote them down after our talk.... I really wonder if this will fly....it sure would be something!!!
 
What's Des Munez like right now? Hot? Still in California. Making the move at the end of June.

-dieselkid
 
Dieselkid!!!

Des Moines is cooling down now. It was in the low 80's today.
 
BTW, it's been temp is bouncing between low and high 80's. Occasionally there are warnings of possible shower or t-storms. Last week there was hale!!!.... Just wanted to post one more just to get rid of the "triple 6".... 😀
 
Hey all!!! It is beautiful and sunny here in Fort Lauderdale... just overnighting it here on my way back! I'm tan and in good spirits... needed to replenish my Vit D stores. damn, took me a while to read all of the new pages!!

Kid T, I got a Gevitz book you can have. I'll be in the detroit airport for an hour tomorrow... then off to Omaha... 🙁

Anyways, the diving SUCKED but the weather was great.

Kid T, you get back in Des Moines July 8th? Make sure you e-mail me with the specifics so that I get to meet you this time. anyways, I'll check the thread tomorrow and see you all soon

Diving is done... now I still have to go to south carolina, maine, california, and michigan before school starts!!!!

Peace guys, Josh
 
By the way, I read the best medical book ever... "The House of God" by Shem. It is a must read for all med students. can borrow it if you want! I also highly recommend "Timeline" by Crichton. Can you guys tell what I did while I was frying my brain?

Also, Charlies Angels soundrack is awesome! Just some summer fun tips! 😎 😎 😎
 
jsdmu
Glad you're check... notice we've fallen behind 😀

Anyway, I'm looking into a possible documentary with DMU-DO students.... Any suggestions? I've emailed PR already and they're interested....

Peace out dude... Have a safe drive and keep replenishing those VitD!!!
 
JS - I'll meet you up at the airport, along with my copy of House of God that you could give to JP for me. I'm sure he'd like it. I have to go and buy Timeline.

Good lookin' out - email me and I'll tell you my cell number if you are down for a quick Detroit hello!
 
eh hommies! Kid T, you can have my Gevitz book and you can borrow Timeline and House of God when you come here.

I'm actually in Omaha right now... will be between here and DSM the rest of the summer most likely.

hope everyones maxin and relaxin, Josh
 
Art's Festival till the WEEKEND!!! 😀

By the way, did you know that there's a law in IOWA that states: "Kiss as long as but not as much as five minutes." Apparently, it's against the law to kiss longer than five minutes. Maximum penalty is $25 😀

Thought I'd share that tid bit of information I found for you studs and studdettes out there!!!

I saw it on the news!!! 😎
 
Hey JP and Kid T, I'd be more than happy to help with the documentary. I do have a lot on my plate though. How about trying to get an educational grant from a big drug company... I know it means that they will put their name on it as well, but it will get done professionally then.
 
One problem is writting up the proposal.... Geez, I'm beginning to think I'm putting too much on my plate and I haven't even started yet...
 
Was that the 46th page already.... yeeaahhhhahahahaha baby!!!

WELCOME TO PAGE 46....
 
I wonder if this will be the most amount of pages that SDN has ever had?.... 😀 Just wondering..... Later peeps, 😎
 
JP, I'm in DSM right now... wanna do lunch tomorrow? Yeah, playa's like me get all over the country.... 😀 😀 😀
Here is a question for any of you Pacific sideliners... Does anyone out there know of any good DO's or MD's in Hawaii??? I have friends out there that I can live with but only want to go there for rotations if I know that they are going to be good teaching physicians. Any input???

JP, hows that biochem coming? NERD!!!!!!! Just kiddin hommie!
 
Lunch sounds good!!! It's already late and I'm not sure whether or not you're still up. If you get this give me call tomorrow and we can grab lunch.

I have yet to touch the biochem stuff... I'm still retyping the first week osteopathic medicine class.... interesting history.... Do we really have to know all that stuff?

Anyway, give me a call if you're still up for lunch....

Can I keep the biochem stuff for a bit longer? At least a week before classes start? Please say yes 😀

Hope to hear from you tomorrow, I'd like to talk to you about this documentary stuff that's going on..... Later dude.... BTW, I am a NERD.... no shame here 😀... the only problem is nerds are typically smarter than the average bear.... I'm just average 😀
 
hello to all dmu students. i will be one of the members of the 2005 class. i'm just getting started with this scutwork forum so please bare with. any body going to be living at windsor terrace? so long for now.
p.s. kidterrific I know who you are
 
T Durden - Let me just say a few things...

1 - I know who YOU are, sucker!
2 - Fight Club is one of my favorite movies.
3 - Popoy lives in Windsor Terrace

You're going to be loving the small little clique we've formed. Thanks for joining us.
 
Hey - here's the deal, my Iowan friends. I will be driving down on Friday, the 6th to move my **** into my apartment. I should be there after midnight. I'll be around on Saturday, if anyone wants to meet up, but let me know now, so I can tell my folks that I'll be leaving. Also, since I'm driving a moving van down, I might need to be picked up, lest you want a damn Uhaul parked at your building! I know it's a pain in the ass, but I do want to see you guys. Just let me know.

I get the keys on Sunday (hopefully Saturday, if you want the truth). Po - I think I might have to take you up on that offer for helping me lug furniture. Nothing big - just a mattress and maybe a couch. Everything else is cool.

Let me know what you guys are thinking. Hopefully this will work out!
 
I was just killin some time and watched "Dude, wheres my car?" It is possibly one of the worst movies I have ever seen!!!! The "Pledge" is also really bad... terrible ending! The only thing that made up for it was the fact that I found "Replacement Killers" at best buy for $10 and then listened to some Ja Rules... yeah... Pimpin in Iowa!!! 😎

Kid T, Fight Club definately has one of the best endings to a movie that I have ever seen. Good call! I gotta check my girls work schedule for that weekend. If she works all weekend, I'll definately see you on saturday or sunday. I'll try to let you know soon. If I'm in a really good mood (and am promised some beer n' wings later) I may help you unload. Keep pimpin!

Welcome Durden (sp?)!!!! Glad you could join us here! Tell us about your bad self! We've all gotten to know each other here pretty well.

JP, I like to consider myself an average nerd stuck in the body of a superhero... 😉 😉 😉 We all have our weaknesses!
 
JP, You can borrow my notes as you go through the classes... as long as you promise to play nice and share with the Kid! It is about 3am, so if you get this before noon tomorrow and haven't heard from me... call me and wake my a$$ up! Everthing highlighted in that intro course that I gave you is test material.

Kid, Maybe we can all go out to Buco Di Bippo's (sp?) on sat or sun... that way your parents can meet me, JP, JP's wife and know that you are in good hands and that we will help you with your adjustment to DSM! Then again, maybe you don't really want your parents to meet me...... 😱 😱

Durden, many of my classmates live at windsor terrace as will many of your classmates... very few complaints that I've heard of! When do you move out here?
 
jsdmu: You mean I could have called you!!! Damn dude, you're still up.... Anyway, my wife and I just got finishing "Remember the Titans" for the second time.... great flic!!!

Thank's a million for those note.... I'll share 😀. You've got to be kidding me about that first week notes.... There's tons of stuff in there to remember. I guess I gotta get my a$$ in gear for a rude awakening in medical school....

I'll wake your A$$ up as long as I can get my a$$ up 😀.... I'm gotta wake up for church so I'll give you a buzz tomorrow and we can grab something to eat.... Any particular place you'd like to go to?!
 
T.Durden
I live in Windsor Terrace.... So far so good here.... Haven't had any problems yet.... 😀

Welcome to SDN and Welcome to our wonderful thread "DMU-OMC Class of 2005"!!!! 😎

Keep on postin' dude!!!
 
KidT
The offer stands.... just give me a buzz and I'll be there to help you out.... 😀

I'm game with what jsdmu suggested.... If you want to grab a few grubs before you head back to MI that would be coo' dude.... We can take my car to go eat somewhere (eg. Buco Di Bippo)....

Just let me know 😎
 
another at windsor terrace huh. cool!
what the hell are you people doing up anyway i'm at work so i have an excuse. kid T. maybe we should make a point to hit the iowa fair, i'm sure we could have a great time singing "icky" breaky heart or what ever the "busy" man sings.
 
thanks for welcoming me guys. kid t. already knows a bit about me, but i'll give you guys a brief overview. first off i just watched fight club tonight for the umpteenth time (one of the best movies ever) so i thought durden (sp.) would be my new pseudonym. any way... currently i live in eau claire wi, and even more currently i am working at my job as a phlebotomist. its a bit slow at the hospital tonight and i've had some time to kill. i'll probably be moving into windsor t. on the 1st or 2nd of aug. i enjoy mountain biking, rock climbing, and all other things I probably can't do much of in des moines.... oh and I can't forget about long romantic walks on the beach 😀 .truthfully though i am excited to get there and meet new people and get down to business. are either of you MSI or MSII?
i haven't quite caught up yet. well i want to write more but i guess we have a trauma coming in about 10 mins so i best get going. i look forward to talking with you guys some more soon.
 
In that case Durden, Just call me "dirk diggler" (boogie nights)! I just finished my first year at DMU, and as the others will tell you, I know everything about anything 😀 😀

SDN, thank you for the carpal tunnel!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Coo' T.Durden's is a phlebotomist!!!

Anyway, my excuse is .... I have no life.... alright I admit it.... JP (that's my real name) has no life 😀

Just killin' time before med school.... Besides, I was watching "REMEMBER THE TITANS" last night with my wife....

jsdmu... thanks for the hook ups as always.... Peace out dude!!! 😀

KidT, so what's going down this coming weekend?
 
I've gotta continue with my tradition of....

WELCOME TO PAGE 47!!! Yeehaw!!! 😀
 
Whoever wants to lug me some furniture, can feel free to help me out!

My parents threatened to kill me if I left them alone in Iowa, so I think I might have to skip getting some food with you all, but don't fret - I'll be back the week or two after that for good!
 
It's all good dude!!!!

I'll help out if you'd like.... As before, just give me a call and I'll be over....

Have a safe trip down here.... Today, it looks like it's gonna rain or somethin'...

Later bud, 😎
 
Hey kid, I was talking with a friend today from hawaii who told me that they though DSM had a scarey looking ghetto... Say What!!! I think Detroit needs to start doing some ghetto tours so people know what a real ghetto is. Perhaps a pleasant bike tour of Highland Park!!!

I'll be in DSM Friday-Sunday, so call me when you get in fri or sat.
 
DSM=Des Moines? What's the S for?

You know, it's funny - I was in Des Moines and I saw all the punks and thugs around the place. I remember laughing to myself and thinking that if any of them were in Detroit, they'd seriously be crying like bitches.
 
Hey Everyone:

I'm cruisin' the DSM "ghettos" later today to look for a cheap house to buy.

I've been in my share of nasty places and I'm wondering if I'm gonna see anything real nasty.

The only bummer is that I'm hoping the neighborhood is OK for the kiddies. I was going to hook up with those of you in town but I'm going to be hittin it pretty hard for 10-14 hours then driving straight home to Omaha.

Late,

Dave
 
Yup DSM = Des Moines... it's an airline designation such as SFO for San Francisco...

Anyway, swdave.... I'm sure any neighborhood here is pretty much safe for the kiddies.... Maybe I'm just naive but I've seen "not so pretty" places.... Good luck hunt housing....

jsdmu.... Just wanted you to know that we have officially returned your DVD's at 2am on Monday, July 2.... 😀 So it's all good.... Thanks for sharing that.... You're right about "Dude Where's My Car?"....

Later y'all, tomorrow I meet with Dr. Heiderscheit to have a look see with how they conduct clinical studies on patients.... Hope it ain't too boring....
 
swdave
So you have you really decided on DMU? I thought you were still waiting on AZCOM?

I asked you this before but I'm sure you weren't able to see it then.... so I ask again....
