Nope, I heard an interview with the guy and he was Negro American and
told the reporter he was an alcoholic who had to have his beer. I'm not
surprised by the hapless fellow's behavior because I know more than one
alcoholic and have seen how bizarrely they behave. o_O

Some months ago my wife was in the hospital ICU. I saw a food tray with
beer cans on it. You can get beer and wine through the pharmacy if you
need it.

When I was a very neophyte nurse working in a psych unit that also did
some SA work, I noted that one of the as needed medications listed on
administration record was "spirits fermenti" for DTs. Haven't yet had
the caring beaten out of me by the system, I looked through the various
reference books to no use. I then called down to the pharmacy and asked
the Pharmacist if they could send up the package insert for the
medication for my reference.
The reply: "Jack Daniels doesn't come with a package insert."

As I keep telling people, the placebo effect is STILL an effect. This
same doc would often RX tryptophan (the active ingredient in turkeys)
for his SA people. His theory was that most SA people needed SOMETHING
to hold on to because they were convinced that they couldn't face life
on their own. Trytophan served that purpose, was cheap, and as the doc
noted the "only major side effect was a tendency to get nervous around
Thanksgiving".

I didn't have a budget to work with. I called the on-duty PA-C and
told her to bring me a sterile syringe of water. The guy on the
receiving end was disturbing the tranquility of his prison cell.

No need for a complicated study. He went to sleep and the rest of my

Kurt, I'm sorry to hear you lost caring because of administration
behavior. I've told my friends in the medical field that I considered
pediatric trauma specialists to be angels. I couldn't understand how
they could do a job that would have me and many others blinded by the
tears from seeing a child suffering from terrible injuries. It takes a
special person to be able to do such a job and I doubt they're in the
field just for the money like some specialists have told me of their
reasons to work in a particular field. o_O

LOL.

A man I worked under would tell me stories of his time at a federal
prison medical facility in the '60's. They kept jugs of liquid
Thorazine (oral) on the block.

Much of GA was dry on Sunday but that's pretty much a thing of the
past (though fairly recent in the Atlanta area). There is one city on
the North side of Atlanta that's still dry on Sunday but I expect that
to change this year (the city fathers have finally agreed to put it on
the ballot). I believe it's been many years since Columbus went wet.

"In this semidocumentary, an Alabama town is run by a crime syndicate
that's grown fat on prostitution and crooked gambling, directed at
soldiers from Fort Benning across the river. Lawyer John Patterson,
back from the army, is triggered by what he sees to join the reformers
with a plan: to run his father Albert for state attorney general. The
syndicate responds with escalating violence: is no one safe? Credits
