Arkansas EMS Conference 2008 |
They say what happens at conference stays at conference, but there are some funny stories behind some of those pictures. And some nice people.
I took my most funniest and fun friend Kim with me to EMS Conference and we laughed so hard it is amazing we weren't kicked out of a few classes.
We also went to one of the old restored bath houses and learned all kinds of words that have, sadly, fallen out of style. Allow me to share a few with you:
Vitiate tr. verb 1 To impair the use or value of; debase; contaminate. 2 To render defective; impair or destroy; render inefficacious. --Vitiable adj --Vitiation noun --Viator noun.
Morbific adj. Producing disease. Also --Morbifical. --Morbifically adv.
Enfeeble tr. adv. To render feeble. See synonyms under impair. --Enfeeblement noun --Enfeebler. noun
Friends, we must take back these words. I charge you, dear Readers, with the task of working them into everyday conversation as soon as possible. Like so:
Tragically, Reinier was enfeebled by scanty fluid intake and excessive dysentery.
That suction canister once so shiny and clean, all else I notice not, nor vomitus in man's beard, nor code brown, nor odors morbific disgust me,
But the suction canister alone - that thick mucus - that green and streaked with bloody sputum - that ruin!
We debauched the young virgin fireman with wine and dancing.
