This house looks like a setting for some zombie flick, or perhaps, a place to go looking for vampires at sundown.   Did you ever wonder about that???  Why in the world would someone go looking for vampires when the sun is going down.    Maybe they ate garlic for supper and feel safe.

My stint of second call is over and I am happy to report that I didn't get called in.   I would not mind working during the awake hours, but, this getting called in at night is the pits.

Back to work tomorrow, I have a senior anesthesia student, so she will do the setting up.    It should be an easy day for me.    The anesthesia students are now Masters prepared.   That means you have to have a BS degree, two years critical care experience, and then apply to the grad school for anesthesia.  This schooling takes for 2/1/2 year to 3 years depending on the program.  

The Einsteins in the colleges are now on the path to make all the Advance Nurse Practioners a PhD program.   Who in the hell would spend all that time and still have the title of RN.   If you are smart enough to do all that advanced degree requirements you might as well go to med school.   The college have decided to put a lot of the professional degree requirement to the Doctorate level.   The pharmacist are now in a PharmD.   They spend 7 years in school and have a Doctorate degree and $200,000 in debt.   All the others are going that way too.   The only ones making money in this deal are the colleges, and the losers are the people with astronomical school loan bills, which many will be paying till they retire or die, which ever comes first.

This spooky house was in western PA.  It has been torn down and replaced by another.   I ofter wonder how old it was and who had lived there.  I will never know.
