A fourth-day EMT was playing around with defibrillator paddles and shocked a coworker as a prank. Defibrillator paddles are what are used to restart a person's heart if it stops (when the person shouts "Clear!" and shocks someone). Unfortunately for this guy, they can also stop a beating heart. The coworker he shocked, a mother of two, was unconcious for three days and then died. The maximum possible sentence (for involuntary manslaughter) is 10 years in prison. |

He shouldn't have been messing around with that! I mean, come on! What person in their right mind would shock someone with that as a prank?! It's so stupid!! All because of someone's immature behavior, someone lost their life. It's just plain ridiculous! I don't care if he meant to do it or not. They shouldn't let anyone on a job like that who likes to play pranks.

That guy should have known that something like that could happen. If something has the ability to restart/stop someones heart you should not be using it to play a practical joke on someone. I don't see why people do stuff that is obviously dangerous. If people would just stop and think before they act we would be a lot better off.

Who would be that idiotic to do that kind of stuff? If that thing has the ability to stop/revive a person's heart, that's something you shouldn't even touch withouth no reason.

What really scares me is that this guy is supposedly a highly educated medical technitian with at least four years of training and an above-average IQ. It seems colleges are letting any dimwit get past the final exam these days.

I think you guys are being a little hard on him. Can you tell me, truthfully, that you've never made a bad decision? You probably haven't killed anyone, but everybody makes mistakes. Everyone does things wrong.

Sure, everyone makes mistakes, but I don't shoot people in the eye, stab people in the neck, and bash people on the head with a hammer as a joke. Some things are just STUPID, and someone of his profession, more than anyone, should know better than to shock someone with defibrillator paddles. If these things are powerful enough to jump-start a heart, it's pretty obvious that they would also be powerful enough to stop one.

a good view to the garden and in the afternoons I sometimes count as many as four chipmunks in the
garden harvesting sunflower seeds for the winter. I suppose I should thank them f....

I'm Going To Kill My Computer Before It Kills Me.
It's just one thing after another... (25) So, I had an issue a while back with my computer. The power supply had died. The computer sat
dormant for about a month before it was fixed. So, last night, after putting the power supply in, I
boot up the computer and everything is dandy. Then the processor fan decides to start making noise.
Usually I can just kind of push gently on one part of it and the noise will go away. But no, not
this time. The noise got, easily, 20 times louder. So I shut my box down and pulled the fan and heat
sink. I fiddled with the fan for a bit.. took a sticker off.. adjusted a clip.. put i....
