Great wedding weekend! My dad turns 90 in July, my mum 85 this year. They danced away until closing time.  Ben and Hattie were magnificent. My youngest Brother Rick (left) went "to town

Had a good fall steelhead trip recently. Went 13 for 13 on steelhead in 2 and a half days. Excellent weather! The young angler James was successful as well!

Went to Cuba, smoked good cigars, ate good food, saw cool stuff.

Thanks Mike. All of these beers are actually Australian but fortunate enough to obtain them here.

I finally got LG HBS-510 Wireless Earbuds to ditch cheapo dog rocket wired earbuds as @BuzzArd@rcarlson@BTWheezy said. It doesn't have aptX codec support and retractable wire management; supports 16 bit sampling only (what do I expect from this cheap wireless earbuds). However, it does its job as it should be with great battery life (good for calling and Virtual FOH Herf)! I'm finally free from wire madness and wire earbuds being broken like a dog chew ?!

I use these all the time and LOVE them.  They work great!!  They even pick up the frog noises from the neighbor's fountain/pond.

No, I am an Anesthesiologist.  Here in the US, intensive care is a sub-specialty of Anesthesiology.  

And since basically the entire hospital is now an ICU for COVID patients, we dont have nearly enough Intensive Care docs to cover all the patients, so the anesthesiologists are treating them.  This is not just in my hospital, but in all of the ones that are overrun with COVID patients.  After all, there are only emergency surgeries anyway, so they dont need us in the operating rooms.

We commandeered these Stryker space suits from the orthopedic department.  We retrofitted the air intake with hepa filters, and we wear them when we intubate covid patients.  Intubating these patients is extremely dangerous for both the doctor and the patient.  We are right in the mouth, and the process of intubating aerosolizes the virus, so we wear these suits and make everybody else leave the room and we close the door, in case the patient coughs during the intubation.  

It is dangerous for the patient because we dont mask ventilate them.  Mask ventilating them REALLY aerosolizes the virus.  The entire room would be filled with virus within a minute or two.  So we have no way of getting oxygen into the patient after we paralyze the patient.  We have to find the vocal cords and get the tube in quickly before the patient dies.  Strange times we are in.

Curious if you are having high success with your vv-ecmo covid patients.  Not a single death for us, such an amazing stat given our usual 50% mortality rate.
