"There are two potential ways of doing it: one is to give intravenous ethanol through a drip, but that is not available in all hospitals. There is also nothing wrong with supplying that alcohol via the gastro-intestinal tract, which is what they've chosen to do in this circumstance, and that's a well established treatment. If the patient's awake they can just drink it."

They should have put it up his butt. Acts faster that way.

The whole poem is five lines long. :justpost:

quote:

From my mother's sleep I fell into the State,
And I hunched in its belly till my wet fur froze.
Six miles from earth, loosed from its dream of life,
I woke to black flak and the nightmare fighters.
When I died they washed me out of the turret with a hose.

quote:

A ball turret was a Plexiglas sphere set into the belly of a B-17 or B-24, and inhabited by two .50 caliber machine guns and one man, a short small man. When this gunner tracked with his machine guns a fighter attacking his bomber from below, he revolved with the turret; hunched upside-down in his little sphere, he looked like the fetus in the womb. The fighters which attacked him were armed with cannon firing explosive shells. The hose was a steam hose.

I was going to say that treating “packing for shipment or distribution of” as a single task is nonsensical because “shipment” and “distribution” are nearly synonyms in this context, but that isn’t quite true.

It’s possible to ship something without distributing it, like if you make components of your widget in Factory A and ship to Factory B for final assembly.

People who crated the component for its journey from A to B would be involved in packaging for shipment, but not in packaging for distribution.

Vice versa is also possible, but a little contrived. As I see it, you’d have to have customers come to your facility. Local pickup only; cash & carry.
