That's a terrible thing to happen, but performing traditional CPR is a
stressful procedure. It's not for the weak. Been there and done that.

God bless and keep them both.

Recently it has been revealed that chest compressions alone are sufficient
to revive a cardiac victim. No artificial respiration needed.

Yeah, if you go in for CPR class they teach compression only CPR. Makes it easier not wondering if you will get a disease!

Anybody hear about this "accident"? A guy rams another car from behind and shoves it 150' into a telephone pole injuring all inside - including a one- and five-year old?

I am pissed about it! With my kids wandering about this town, I was on the lookout. If I saw that dirt bag, I woulda made sure he never had the chance to do that again!

And how often is Eagle walking up or down the very road on which the ramming occurred? That is right by Kyle's house.

I was happy to see the headlines of today's paper announcing he has been arrested.

Yes. And this is not even close to his first offense. He has a long history of dealing drugs, as well as having killed a friend back in HS when a gun "accidentally" when off during cleaning, shooting his buddy in the face!

He is an example of why we should have voted our current prosecutor out of office this past election . . . she didn't have the stones to pursue charges on more than one occasion!!

Well the judhe he has now is not slacking! She set his bail higher than what the prosecutor wanted...$150,000 higher! I agree with her reasoning, though. He had just been in her court (and was late enough to that she had issued a bench warrant for him) on another charge nary an hour before he is supposed to have rammed the car!

Superman is renouncing his U.S. citizenship.

I remember Beck's warning, "In two years you won't recognize your country".

He was right.

God help the people of Alabama and the rest of the South.

We had a impressive funnel cloud form here at work. It didn't touch down.

My thoughts and prayers go out to those good people.

Don't look now Elf, but they're coming after your kids' cereal now.

This is just insane. Really.

Elfie have you read the comments after the article? Seems there are a bunch of ticked-off comic readers!

Not market to kids? I guess the government has figured out that we parents don't know how to choose wholesome foods for our kiddos and are swayed by every whim of our young.

Ya know, I have a deep thread of patriotism and loyalty to my country . . . the country that gave me the opportunities of my youth, and allowed my forefathers to become successful when they came over from Italia.

As I look around me these days . . . I don't see that country. I see a bunch of children who have fits whenever they are asked to lift a finger, or to care about anyone other than themselves.

Sad.

They are called "The Entitlement/Gimme Gimme Gimme, Generation."


Sad.
