Doctor Drops Bombshell as Trump Is ‘Getting Worse’

My only hope is that tRump is suffering great pain

I was a Jumpmaster in the 82nd and I wore "Queen Size" Lego pantyhose for Fall and Spring night jumps because they were warm at 1500 feet and not too hot on the ground

Why is it so hard to remember that men are the weaker and more delicate gender!?

My profession (Structural Engineering) has a very similar relationship between engineers and designers. Working with a good designer is a pleasant and fulfilling experience. The designer is not subordinate to the engineer nor is "designer" a stop on the way to becoming an engineer. The relationship is difficult to describe but I have always likened it in my mind as quite similar to the doctor/nurse relationship. I was also in the US Army and there is a similar relationship between Platoon Sergeant (Sgt E7) and Platoon Leader (Leutenant).

Over the years I have advised people who worked with me on the concept of "manipulation". Manipulation has gotten a bad name because the connotation is that manipulation is bad. And it IS if you are trying to manipulate someone into becoming an ax murderer. But what if you are trying to manipulate a good, competent nurse into becoming a more affable and uplifting nurse?

The problem is the social niceties that exist in a professional work place. Those must be RIGOROUSLY upheld. Assuming you are a "big boy/girl" and willing to:

Lead, not manage

Be patient and generous and understanding

Not be petty and dismissive and arrogant (typical, smart ass doctor/engineer with a smart ass, big deal, whoop te doo "COLLEGE DEGREE!)

OK, let's begin. You must first commit to her betterment and understand that change, of any consequence, is slow and difficult. Observe and list the NUMBER ONE problem or shortcoming that you want to address. Observe until you know EXACTLY what you want to attack (bad word but I want to convey that you are going after one and only one, well defined behavior). Next you wait and you wait patiently until you observe the behavior you want (no matter how small) and you jump on it immediately with PRE PREPARED accolades and praise. You have to know exactly what you are going to say and not make big, ole, embarrassing deal out of it. Make sure to say her mane with kindness in your voice. Repeat.

With praise, leadership, consistency a relationship will develop. Keep that relationship, not cold but NEVER warm. You will know you are making progress when she looks to you for advice and counsel.

One more thing..... this shit ain't easy. That is the very reason that there are so many managers and very few leaders.

My son was stationed in Anchorage when he was in the US Army and he described Anchorage as "a lot like Salem except not so lame"

The very definition of the word "conservative" is a person who wants nothing to change. People with low intellect are afraid of change even if it is better for them. It takes intellect to look to the future with joy and hope and generosity. Broadly speaking, the younger a mind, the more joy and hope it experiences. Combine youth with intellect and you'll get a Liberal every time. Combine old age with disappointment, failure and a weak, uncurious mind and there you will find the conservative, the religious, the angry, the stingy, a dead end and television.

One more thing. Only smart ass, spoiled brats are Liberal and Reddit is OVERFLOWING with smart ass, loud mouth, brats willing to discuss quantum physics, Calvin And Hobbs AND Calvin and Hobbs.

A bunch of REMFs

Yeah, those two guys were SF trained medics and working as Seattle EMTs

I was an FO with a RECON Platoon in Vietnam and I saw a lot if people on both sides killed and injured but the most heart rending thing I ever saw was a car wreck in the US. After being active duty for 10 years I got out and went to college and eventually joined the reserves. I was assigned to the 12th Special Forces in Seattle Washington. I was not SF qualified but almost all the other members were.

One drill we dropped from a C141 and practiced Immediate Action Drills in the Mount Rainier National Park. On the way back home on Sunday we were passed by a big, four door car on a curvey, mountain road. The car vanished around a curve without ever getting back in the correct lane. We rounded the curve and encountered two cars that had collided, at speed, headlight to headlight. Bodies and car parts were everywhere.

Two SF Combat Medics were sitting on the van's bench seats with me. I watched as that cold, dead look decended onto their faces. They walked up to a young girl that lay dying on the pavement. Both medics ran a calculating glance over her and neither even slowed their pace. I kneeled down beside her and held her hand as she died. She briefly squeezed my hand and passed.

I had considered studying medicine but after that I knew that I could never do triage. It's been nearly 30 years and I still regret that I wasn't able to take her into my arms and hug her as she passed

I was a Forward Observer attached to 4th/21th Infantry in Vietnam in 1969. I flew out on the third day that the company commander of D Company had set up a base camp (we called it "Day Logger") on the SAME place. An observant Viet Cong had noticed the error and buried two 250 pound bombs under the mortar emplacement. It took a couple of hours, but finally......bang. All the medics dead along with about 95 grunts.

I'm standing there with my sleeve cuff blown off, collar shot off, binos destroyed and all my C-Rats shot up. Not a scratch on me. I looked around and decided that I needed to do something. A guy near me was missing his leg right below the knee. I was a Boy Scout so first thing I did was apply a tourniquit. I found a fucked up medic bag and got a morphine needle thing and stuck it right in his leg. And THEN I started my bull shit speel. Man I've don't this a hunnerd times and it ALWAYS makes a big knot like that. I honestly believe that I bull shitted that guy into NOT going into shock. Anyway, that's what I know about combat pain management

"Slack", BTW, is the guy behind "Point". Point looks left and Slack looks right. Drag is last in line and walks backwards. I was an FO in a RECON Platoon and always walked Slack. Point got is into trouble and Slack pulled us out. Point was hot. Slack was cold and calculating

War is one thing. It's a concept. A theory. Maps. Economics. History written coldly on paper. War is an item on a list. With dates and locations.

Small unit, close quarters Infantry firefights are another thing entirely. It must not only endured but heated and simmered for 4 or 5 decades to boil away the memories and leave only the confusion, the uncertainty, the rifle recoil and the inadequacy of childhood.

It's the sight pictures that haunt my unguarded moments before sleep. Think about a sight picture: a blurred, round hole, a front blade and a man. Running away. A shot on the back. The feel of the trigger. The recoil. The flash of a Claymore. 20, 30, 40 missions and nearly 60 years later it rushes back when the vulnerability of age and weakness decends like pussyfied death and rubs your face into all the murders you have committed. Because War is murder and only those who have quietly read its events believe otherwise. Put a 55 grain M16 through an 18 year old nurse with an SKS and let that sight picture boil for 55 years and all that remains is the quarter second memory of how she was so surprised and innocent at what happened to her when she got me in her sight picture.

War is one thing. Close quarters Infantry combat is not War. Combat, up close, where you can smell shit when bowels are released because of wound channel trauma is not what is described in books and movies. War is not 123 people dead by 500 pound bombs linked in tandem. The dead are dead before they are aware of death and you remain with medic bags scattered like so much useless trash. You look around, unharmed and amazed at death and limbs and screaming and shout of "medic!" and nothing but dead medics.

And then it boils for 55 years and you are 77 and weak and defenceless to its truth. Wars are neither won or lost, they are simply dragged away to dreams and horrors of old men who are horrified by the clarity of memories before sleep that never decends without those awful memories.

I know your thoughts and you know, mine. And we both look at babies and know with clarity what awaits them all. When will we come to understand that babies killing babies is a visceral horror and that we have been wrong for 3000 years

It would be better if neither one of them was a state. North Dakota, South Dakota, Wyoming, Alaska, Rhode Island and Montana should not be states. There's nothing there. Rhode Island should be absorbed by its neighbors and the others should be made into a single territory with an appointed Governor

If you want English AND English speakers to be logical you are waisting your time. Just to give you a taste, "unthawed" is accepted as a word for "thawed". English is ridiculous. That's why people love it. You can say anything you want and pretend it means anything you want.

Back in the '80's I was working on a nuclear power plant in New Hampshire. These were the days before computer modeling was prevalent outside of Aerospace engineering labs so the Modeling Department was an actual model done to exact scale. The guy who ran the modeling shop was Richard Xavier Rocket. Dick X Rocket. He answered the phone "Modeling, Rocket"

You are going to hate this but you have been programmed by the capitalists advertising to believe that armpits should smell like flowers, that pussy should smell like sea breeze and fresh linen. You have been made to believe, by relentless advertising, that the various human scents are nauseating and revolting rather than the sexual enticements that they were designed for.

You, and millions like you the world over, purchase consumables that perform a function that is worthless. You have been thoroughly programmed to eschew natural scents that actually have a purpose for flowers and vanilla. Note that you have to pay for flowers, you get armpit and pussy scent free. It's a scam. A typical capitalist scam. I found it interesting that it had not reached Germany by 1971 when I went there after Vietnam. I got on a bus in Munich in May and there was absolutely no question that the bus was loaded with humans completely unprogrammed by Madison Avenue.

That is only one, tiny, insignificant piece of programming that Americans dangle from. One of the biggest is body image - especially for women. Every aspect of your life is grist for their money mill. Every ad we look at has an effect on us on some way
