Featured Forum Topic

How useful is a PDA?

Hi Everyone!
I received information on a PDA as a recommendation from my faculty to help me during my clinical rotation. Has anyone used this while they were in school? If so, what does it do for you? Any insight would be really appreciated, money is tight and I dont want to waste it! Thanks!

On the Lighter Side

Animal Crackers

When a mother returned from the grocery store, her small son pulled out the box of animal crackers he had begged for, and then he spread the animal-shaped crackers all over the kitchen counter.

"What are you doing?" his mom asked.

"The box says you can't eat them if the seal is broken," the boy explained. "I'm looking for the seal."
