The Emporia Gazette

Euthanization

Steve, the article didn't mention the fact that the Eskimos rely on whale blubber as a food staple. Must make for an interesting diet; okra, staples and blubber. Cooked okra is sort of slimy, isn't it? How do you suppose they keep it on the staples?

Loss not as great as expected

Joe, what do you care what I purchase or who in the hell tells me to do so? Sounds like the Dorsey guy pegged you for whatever you are and you resent it.

Loss not as great as expected

Joe, you are probably correct that the home is being built legally. I never said it wasn't. I just wondered why the CEO felt it better to have his name absent from the permit.

As for Bob Dorsey, I can't say I know the man as he sure as in H*** was not my source. but he's apparently got something on you that's got your panties in a knot.

Why are you so certain the person I talked with is a moron - are you a board member, Bob-CEO or the Mayo clinic wannnabe DON in disguise and *my informant* hit a little too close to home?

My dad taught me never to be involved in a battle of wits with the unarmed. That's you, Joe, so I'll leave you to continue to strum your pleasant little tune as you convince yourself that everything is 100% Kosher with our little hospital on the plains.

Have a nice life. And learn to play nice, will you? Name calling only proves your lack of intelligence.

Oh Steve. You ass/u/me the board has it's collective head elsewhere other than someplace dark & stinky.

Loss not as great as expected

One more thing, Joe, the "nonsense" you make reference to starts at nrhc with the CEO and director of nursing.

Were you aware that Bob is building a 1/4 million ($250.000.00) dollar home but the building permit is in Mrs Bob's name? No, it's not illegal, or unethical, I just find it strange that the top gun of nrhc, the place that's losing money left and right, decided to put the permit for such an expensive home in a name other than his own. I'm certain the money for the home is absolutely and legally his but gosh, his hospital is struggling - maybe he could afford a cut in pay as a gesture of trying to help out.

You better believe the employees noticed.

If I could afford to build a home worth half of that I'd scream it from the rooftop AND post it here.

Joe, I cannot name my source but I would trust him with my life again.

Loss not as great as expected

Too bad the gazette decided to show only part of the entire article online where there would be no question or feedback.

For anyone who saw the article, did it explain why the LPNs were laid off and replaced for an entire week with agency R.N.s at $50-$60 / hour?

And did that figure into the operating loss?

City to prepare new cable TV ordinance

This Russian woman was mugged, She escaped and walked to the home of her parents who subsequently took her to the hospital. Surgery right away and she's fine.

An acquaintance sent the link to some people one of which happens to work for the city. A response came right back that it was a photo and story of the typical city employee. Could also be an Newman Hospital LPN, I suppose.
