Do you think its time more music started teaching instead of bragging and pimping.

Teaching what?

I think perhaps he meant "musicians" instead of "music."

I am NOT a pimp. I am a whore or a slut, depending on the requirements of the situation.

Can you imagine learning your abc's with out singing the song.

Oh I get it. Your talking about using music to teach memory subjects. Like school house rock.
I tried that knee bone connected to the chin bone thing when I took A&P for my nursing degree.
Didnt work out so well.
All our music is about teaching. But shhhh, dont tell them. Its a secret.

All music teaches. It is never realized, however, until you get to be in your ...oh...mid-forties or so.

I remember the movie Demolition Man claimed that in the future, music is replaced by commercials. I used to think that there is no way that will happen, but I now beleive the transition has already begun to take place.

yah like any song that mentions any sort of food product....bleh

Yea, why do they hink the have to dance and sing about tampons?

Sans,

Are you raggin???

Second post where ya put in a comment re: Tampx or kotex or sumptin of that nature

I grew up with three sisters.
I,ve been married >26 years.
Two of my four children are now grown women.
I was the only guy in this household for a long time.
I am an RN. I work with women and for women. More often than not I work on women.
Even my boss at the pawn shop where I work now is a woman.
If any man has a right to be on the rag.
It's me.
And I have hated those advertisements ever since I was a little boy.

That's hilarious. Soon you will need hormone replacement therapy, then that will be a mess. I don't even know why they do commercials on feminine hygiene products at all. There is no such thing as a "happy period". We don't buy pads or tampons because of cute jingles. We have no friggin' choice. It would be nice to be able to say, Oh I don't think I will use those things at all any more. Believe me, at the age of blah,blah,blah, I am pretty much fed up with having to buy them.

Sanshouheil, I am glad to read that you are a nurse. Some of my favorite musician buddies are in the medical field. I was once a medical assistant and IV technician. I attended many jazz camps sponsored by an OB-GYN, a male who played piano.

Thanks. Some days I am proud to be a nurse. Then there are those days when I have to go to work.
On those few occasions when someone listens and I am able to make their life better, or at least give them some understanding of their disease process. It is an awsome feeling. But damn, the older I get the more I hate listening to all the lies about the money end of the business.
All of the hospitals and other medical facilities I have worked for put their patients at risk for the sake of money. They are all under staffed.
I would like all the nurses in the USA to take the same month off all at once. Let those doctors and hospital administrators see if they can run it without us. Lying bastards.
Sorry, now I rant.

I am glad that you are ranting. The medical system is becoming so screwed up. No, the hospitals are ran by a a beaurocratic administration but it is the nurses that should be credited with keeping hospitals open and competitive. If all nurses across the country took the same month off, the results would be devestating. Everyone would be running around with their fingers up their butts. Then the powers that be would reassign job responsibilities. People in dietary would receive emergency credentials to give sub-Q and P.O meds. Housekeeping would have to become surgical assitants.This seems funny but it is most likely what would happen. It would be a disaster BUT, administration would conclude that the hospital functions fine without nurses so they should be able to get by with half the nurse force. So when that vacation month was over, half of the nurses would return discovering that his job has been terminated because a dietary aid can both feed, and medicate patients. What a huge savings that would be on the hospital. Poor patients.
