Stuff that Doesn't Suck (TM)

Tarascon's Pocket books. Nope, no suckiness there at all.

Take care,
Jeff
 
I worked with the guy who wrote the EM books Steven Rothrock.. Cool guy.. Really knows his stuff.. Sadly he had thyroid cancer I believe and went to work out in the community.
 
PocketPCs. And that's from a Mac user. Thank God for Missing Synch.

What a great program. Makes my Windows Mobile talk all nice-like with my Mac.

Take care,
Jeff
 
1) New McDonald's spicy chicken sandwich, no mayo
2) Tequila shots w/o "training wheels"
3) Taking off ski boots
4) Having a thing of guaiac juice in every backpack you own

Ditto. But as mentioned in things that suck thread.... I wish I had a sled.
 
Took the wife out last night to Ambria here in Chicago great food.. That doesnt suck... Yummy... I love some good food! A new city (hopefully) to explore next yr!
 
UptoDate on pocket pc...or in general.

STudying at Barnes and Noble and having 4 Hooters girls walk in and sit in front of you (not great for studying).

24.

Another thing that doesn't suck- creative thinking (and experience)! Get yourself a big old plastice garbage can sack. Or, an old nylon coat. Works wonders. Tobbogining beats sledding any day.

Another option is a trusty broiler pan. It's a tried-and-true favorite of my inlaws. They don't dent easily, and are pretty sturdy.

Here's something else that doesn't suck: puppy kisses after a really fulfulling day in the ED. And hot Sicillian pizza.
 
Being healthy...The beginning of Spring Training...The Shawshank Redemption...A ripe mango...A comfortable pair of shoes...Catching a great song on the radio just as it starts...
 
Guiness Draft, a good cabernet in a thin glass, scuba diving in the red sea, hiking in Petra at night...

And todays favorite: Rappelling out of my fourth floor apartment to get to a surgery rotation after my roommates accidentally locked me inside my apartment...

Boy, I really, really hope you got pictures to demonstrate to PDs your devotion to your patients! :laugh:

Be even better if you were climbing up the hospital wall to get to the patients' rooms. . .uh . . .maybe not.

Unfortunately I didn't get pics, but I was lucky enough to bump into him while I still had the harness, carabiner, and figure eight in my hand... 😀

I wouldn't have done it, especially considering the apartment is nearly adjacent to the hospital , but I had no phone and noone would have missed me until the afternoon. Try to picture five floors of patients staring out of their hospital windows at a nicely dressed guy jumping off of a balcony early in the morning. Fears of "WE HAVE A JUMPER!!!!" being screamed as sirens approached did come to mind.

They tend to shoot people here for climbing UP buildings... 🙁
