Update: Walter has even more. I’ve decided that he’s a great asset to the site and I’ve decided to pay him my blog salary in addition to all of my Scout leader salary. Unfortunately, my bank doesn’t allow me to write checks in the amount of zero dollars. Thanks!

And the latest from the Wilderness Medical Society, two very detailed posts that summarize presentations by Dr. Grant S. Lipman, who is a Clinical Assistant Professor of Surgery in the Division of Emergency Medicine at Stanford University.

That extra salary will be a big help. My Scouter salary got cut in half last night. We have a new Committee Chair, so I can go back to only being Scoutmaster. I’ve been doing both jobs for a couple of months. Two hours a week was killing me.

LOL. 
I’ve always wondered who came up with the slogan “Just an hour a week” in relation to being a Scout leader and if the people he pitched it to thought he was out of his mind. Believe it or not, they actually told me that when I went in for my training. I’d already been a den leader for a while, though, so I was well acquainted with the reality that any leader worth his salt finds it impossible to stop at an hour a week and ends up flipping the saying to “An hour a week for everything else”.
