No, there's a NissEn and the pronunciation is NISen - rather than Neesahn/Nissan. nm

The doc is dictating a correction, says:  "Please note, there were only two debridements, not three.  The heel debridement was a selective tissue debridement . . . unlike the other two debridements, which were subcutaneous tissue debridements." I smell another correction coming! Hehehee! ...

Listening to Rush today. He announced his new product line of Rush Babe apparel and bump stickers. He urged the gals to order a t-shirt with Rush Babe logo to annoy liberals. Nice to know connies care enough about our opinion to spend their hard-earned money (or their hubby's) on a shirt to annoy us.  I personally would not be annoyed but rather pity the wearer. Anyone over 20 with an opinion t shirt is sad enough, but one pledging allegiance to an obese misogynist is patheti ...
