In Memory of Jeff. Chapter 1: Meeting Jeff.

I met Jeff in November of 2006. He was beginning his rotations through our hospital as an X-ray student through Chaffey College. He was this tall 6'2 guy with long hair down to his lower back (which was in a pony tail.) and Bluto-like beard & mustache. In the 2004 season of American Idol there was a contestant on that show named Bo Bice, another tall long haired bearded man. Jeff struck me as a Bo Bice look-alike. Soon after I gave him the nickname Bo Bice, which he hated. Other people had made that reference to him that same year. I do remember him saying that people had confused him with that AI contestant as well.

Because I didn't know Jeff, he struck me as someone who sure talked a lot. In those early days of knowing Jeff, his talking was, well annoying at first. Jeff not only wanted to know X-ray principles, he wanted to know them well. He was determined to be the best at his new career.

At this point, Jeff and his students were only scheduled once a week and they were only supposed to observe until they returned from Christmas break, which would be January 2007. I did learn that Jeff and I both were both Kaiser babies, born at Kaiser Fontana, 10 years apart.

Getting Fed Up With Japanese Escort Spam.

Okay, I guess it's because this is a public forum, one that anyone can view. On my dead blog, I'm getting Japanese porn sites and female companion spams on my comments. It's very annoying. I wish there was some way to block these idiots.

I'm just wondering if switch2planB or The Epic Beat are getting these spams as well? Most of them are written in Japanese but I can tell they are links since they are highlighted.

I've been restraining myself from posting lately because I tend to gripe a lot on my blogs. But I think this one is worth mentioning.
