I too work in a hospital, but I run the network. I am off Thursday but on call, and Friday is a regular work day for me, but no one else in the department will be here that day. I am covering for all as it is my turn this year. Going to (my wife's) Grandma's house for dinner Thursday, then have to run out to work to drop my wife off, as she is working second shift to help cover (she's a nurse) for those who wanted off. Since I am tied to the local area due to being on call, it seemed like a good idea, since it is holiday pay with shift differential. At least they will pay me $50 just for being on call that day, and a two hour minimum if I get called in.

Jacob is terribly misguided in his questioning. Instead, he should be asking the MTSU administration and the TBR (Tennessee Board of Regents) the following question. Since the current "Bare Bones" budget the state is operating under, fully funded ALL education requests at 100%, WHY was it necessary to raise tuition an additional 15%? But then, that is exactly what I would expect from a group who would hire a man, not even qualified enough to make the top ten list of recommended candidates, (he placed 12th) but who happened to be the highest ranking man of the correct race (black) on the list. This was at a time when MTSU and the TBR were under a lot of pressure from that well known bastion of modern day racism, the NAACP because of a plaque that was mounted on the wall out back of the University Center. Who was the man on the plaque? Nathan Bedford Forrest, who happened to be from the area. Does this mean that they (TBR and MTSU)will also use all their political muscle to keep a plaque of Joel Spingarn off of campus walls as well? (For my white brothers, he founded and was the first leader of the NAACP) My personal opinion, they are all a bunch of greedy bastards who think they know what is better for me than I do. One more thing, I am an MTSU alum, unfortunately. The liberals in control there did not like me very much as I always called them on their B.S. liberalistic, bigoted, racist and intolerant views. Gee, makes me want to return to work on that masters I keep saying I am going to get one day. . .

Don't foget, that if those other 51 people would have been armed, they probably would be here still to tell all just how "ineffective" their handguns really were!
