some things I learned last week

a couple of nifty EKG rhythm tricks from some other cardiac nerds, firsthand knowledge of caffeine toxicity, a punch in the chest really can start a flatlined heart beating again, and- of utmost importance- shoving vicks vaporub up your nose too many times in one night may indeed keep the dookie odor out and clear the sinuses, but it can also make your nose bleed.

So what are the nifty EKG tricks? I'm always up for a new trick to add to the bag...

Google nasal snuff; if you don't want the nicotine, there are some out there that are pretty weak, and a menthol will pretty well give you the Vicks effect with less to regret later. Remember not to sniff it up too far, though; it can hurt for a while if you do.
$2-3 worth can last a couple months.
