Shooting
Watching a series on earth sciences, by Dr. Iain Stewart. I heard, "The volcano is shitting out carbon dioxide!" I had to think a moment... shooting! Not shitting, shoooooting.
Today was a day of large and wimpy patients. Not squirrely, but sensitive and vocal. All very small cases, minor procedures with local anesthetic and a bit of sedation - although more than was planned. With the understanding that minor surgery can only happen to someone else. Still, this bunch were remarkable for their size and whine. On the other hand, our surgeon was particularly whiny today as well. I suspect a connection.
Have friends on Groogle netface, so I considered joining. But because they insist on real names, I will have to decline. I've been careful to keep this site away from my professional life, and other riff-raff, and I need to keep it that way. A motivated, if not terribly talented, hacker could no doubt find me. A casual searcher on Gargle using my full name could not. I know, I've tried. I like writing without inhibition, if still in a kind of code. I don't put other people's names on here either. Except Dave, but that's only because he could as well be John, or Mike.
Keeping my relative anonymity.

'Shitting' seems a much better word for volcanic action.
I am very much aligned with your desire to have an anonymous spot (pseudonym) to write. What is tricky for me is that if I want to market my writing skills for a potential writing job, I'd need to open up that link. Fortunately for me if you Google my real name there is no link to Phil Plasma, and in addition, there are a number of somewhat well known people who have exactly my name, so I don't even come up hardly at all.
gz,
understood.
Yeah, shooting just isn't nearly as good a description.
(grin)
Thanks :-)
I hear ya, Z!
