    State Of Emergency

    Buckle up because we're talking Emergency Room stories!  There's never a dull moment in the E.R. and these Gabber stories did not dissappoint.  We know a lot of you listen with your kids in the car and there may be a couple of submissions that could be a little much for them.  We use pretty mild language and don't get into the nitty gritty, but we want to give that disclaimer.
