Presented for your enjoyment and/or enlightenment, a random assortment of things I’ve found interesting recently. Like everything else at NfMH, AtB will run irregularly at my whim. For openers, Peter at Bayou Renaissance Man presents the ultimate collection of playground FAIL. Peter runs a very enlightening blog and was the inspiration for Around the Blogosphere. [...] Or more accurately, “Who owns your name?” Take a brief walk with me into one of the stranger corners of the Internet. Don’t worry, your identity is safe. Just keep your hand on your credit cards and don’t click any popups. I’ve mentioned before that I sometimes listen to political talk radio. (Lately I don’t [...] For a while now, I’ve been aware that NfMH was being scraped. I didn’t get too upset about it. Even if my text was being used to hawk tree services in Austin it was still linked back here and hopefully driving traffic my way. This all changed last week when an aggregator swiped my [...] Please welcome to the blogroll Paramedic Pulp Fiction and the Insomniac Medic. Both write with the wonderful narrative style for which I strive. KC at PPF isn’t new to the blogosphere, but somehow I hadn’t discovered him until today. Ben the Insomniac Medic has been a longtime read of mine; I’m not sure how I’d [...] Last week I received an email from one Taylor Dardan: I wanted to send you a quick message, and see if I would be able to write a guest blog on your site. I am very passionate the health concerns that can endanger first responders. I am trying to raise the awareness of [...] I don’t have it lately.

Some of my favorite reads are still at it though, capturing snapshots of the wonder and passion of life in public safety. Presented for your [...] I’m a bit of an early adopter. I’m not on the bleeding edge of technology, but I’m out in front of many people. I’ve been into Gmail for years, since back when you needed an invitation to get an account. I know the dangers of cloud computing; namely that your data is at the mercy [...] 0300 hours finds me seated on the foot of the stretcher, resting my feet on the rear bumper of Medic 9. The empty ambulance bay at Local Suburban is framed in the rear doors as a few snowflakes drift gently past. For once things are quiet, and I am alone as my partner finishes her [...] Everyone has heard the old cliche about cops and donuts. The equivalent joke for paramedics centers on coffee. Everyone knows we work high stress, weird hours, and they think we thrive on caffeine. For me it’s iced tea. Lots of it, with lemon. Leave the sugar in the cupboard, please. Lately I’ve taken to brewing [...] Captain Wines has heart. Go. Read. I’ve been remiss in not carrying him in the Blogroll. That oversight is now remedied. |
