I realize that I never told the next part of the Saga of Vicky. Her time was short, but her replacement is here. Meet Celest, she's the beauty in blue on the right. On the left has yet to be named, but there are suggestions. #guitar#guitarist#youtube#metal#rock
@DallasStarsDDH "The Dallas Stars absolutely have to trade Robertson, but sources say he might want to stay with the team, however Nill has been fielding calls about him, but it's possible Nill wants to sign him again, still a meteor could hit the AAC..."
The ability for Mike to completely commit to anything that's asked without a wink or nod puts him in the category of legendary. The kind of guy you build an entire mid card around.
Daycare calls me. That's never good.
For them.
Daycare: "your son hurt his elbow and won't move his arm. Can you come take him to a doctor's office?"
Me (ex Special Forces Medic): "A real doctor is on the way to you now. I am 6 mikes out. Alert me of status changes."
I arrive at daycare. I locate the patient. 21 month old male. Scene is not safe. I drag the patient to cover and concealment behind a seesaw, away from the other small terrorists in the AO.
I begin my assessment. Blood sweep negative for massive hemorrhage. Mental status: conscious and verbal but confused (answers "dada" when asked for blood type). One breath every 2 seconds. Bilateral rise and fall of the chest. Strong carotid pulse, strong bilat radial pulse.
Teeth and tongue intact no blood no mucus no dip or foreign objects. Eyes PERRLA, negative JVD/trach deviation, C-spine intact upon palpation.
Heart sounds strong upon auscultation. Percussion negative for hemo-T. Abdominal quads normal upon palpation. Pelvis negative for book sign.
Arms and legs negative for crepitus. However, Patient indicates discomfort in right arm upon palpation and supination/flexion of the elbow.
Nursemaid's elbow.
I begin interventions. Supination/flexion technique complete at 1215. Palpable clunk on successful reduction. I write the time on his chest in Sharpie. I tape a popsicle to his hand and tell the patient to suck but do not bite/chew. I write "1 x popsicle (10g sugar)" on his chest in Sharpie.
I reassess the patient after performing interventions then package the patient for handoff to daycare/higher level of care. I yell at daycare over the Blackhawk in my head: "21 month old male!!! Nursemaids elbow!!! Treated with supination/flexion technique at 1215!!! Patient has 1 x popsicle onboard!!"
Daycare: "sir please leave."
Me: "you should have called my wife."
It's less about making him the highest paid on the team and more about managing this coming season's lean cap space, really. I'll bet if this was next season, he's at 8x13.5 or 14.
Pierre LeBrun: I think Jason Robertson really wants to stay in Dallas...but for the Stars I just don't think they can stomach making him the highest paid player on the team - Jay on SC (6/24)
George Washington bred his own pack of hunting dogs and named them like a man with zero supervision. We're talking Sweet Lips, Tipsy, Tipler, Drunkard, and one named Vulcan who was so big a kid could ride him like a pony. Vulcan once stole an entire ham straight off the dinner table and bolted to the kennels. The General just laughed while Martha sat there furious.
But the dogs were only half of it. The man could DANCE. In 1779 he partnered with Kitty Greene at a ball and the two of them danced for over three hours straight without sitting down once. People at the time said he was actually elite at it. He called it "so agreeable and innocent an amusement."
And in his final years his big retirement hobby was building a whiskey distillery. Not a little hobby still either. By 1799 it was the largest distillery in America, cranking out 11,000 gallons a year.
So the real George Washington: breeds hunting dogs with names like Drunkard, dances for three hours straight, runs the biggest whiskey operation in the country. Founding Father behavior.
