Through early morning fog I see visions of the things to be...
Sadly hearing about the Army giving away our last M*A*S*H unit makes me a little sad. For reasons I can't really comprehend I'll miss it. I've never served with, or even known anyone in a MASH unit, but I did REALLY enjoy the show. When I first started in EMS, my senior year of high school, I watched 2 episodes of MASH every morning. I am almost certain I've seen every episode. Odd I feel that connected to a television show that took 11 years to depict a war that only lasted 3. Well...we'll always have the M*A*S*H reruns, the M*A*S*H movie, Stripes, Sgt. Bilko, Major Pain, Private Benjamin and assorted other movies that make light of war and the military...but no more REAL MASH units.

The other night at the St. Johns some weirdo decided he was going to stroll about the hospital and grope a patient. He also picked up a few things from assorted pastoral staff's offices. After a few nurses notified security that someone was running loose in the hospital the search was on. Since I had seen him earlier in the night, with his mother who was a patient, I told one of the Anderson PD officers I'd help her search. We sent a couple people to the 6th floor and she and I went to the basement. After a short search of the pharmacy and a large supply room we split up. As I came back to where we'd agreed to regroup at I heard him coming out of an office. Really nothing too exciting happened. He did not run. I did not get to tackle him. No shots were fired, contrary to what the rumors in the hospital may be. But it did make the "paper". That kid is a moron.
On an unrelated note I've heard that a part time position is coming open in the security department at St. Johns. It pays more and the hours are the same. So I am going to apply for that. It is a sworn police officer gig so thats a plus.
Soon work for the reopening of the pool will start! I'm a little excited about that.
Oh...and if you care to see pictures of me playing Marine one weekend a month I have a new album dedicated soley to that purpose. Here you go.
PS-Ana rocks!
