Someone Failed… Is it the System? Everyday EMS Ethics
A tempestuous night is blowing outside the station walls. The cold night air is stirred wildly, blowing splatterings of rain against the glass window of my bedroom. The wind howls through the trees conjuring up fantastic images of the disturbed environs of the world outside my bunk room. Having gone to bed early, I cannot […]

Welcome to Hell Feet 2: Magnum Boots Review
Having purchased three or four pairs of Magnum boots I can simply say they are garbage. Are they comfortable? Yes they are comfortable, but that is it. As for durability and longevity they are garbage, as the soles come apart, the lace eyelets come out, and that zipper functions only a couple months before it…

A Slap in the Face to Paramedics Everywhere?
