Everybody should learn three things - how to do compression-only CPR* , the heimlich maneuver, and the International sign for "I am choking" (hands crossed in front of throat, face turning blue).

stay safe.

*Staying Alive http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I_izvAbhExY may be the only good thing to come out of disco - a steady 100 beats per minute.  It may drive you crazy singing it to yourself but it sure does help to know when to press down hard.
If cowardly and dishonorable men sometimes shoot unarmed men with army pistols or guns, the evil must be prevented by the penitentiary and gallows, and not by a general deprivation of a constitutional privilege.

Hey you kids!! Get off my lawn!!!

They keep making this eternal vigilance thing harder and harder.  Protecting the 2nd amendment is like playing PACMAN - there's no pause button so you can go to the bathroom.

See, depending on if you're an optimist or a pessimist, there are a couple of song options.

Optimists may go with "Stayin' Alive".

Pessimists go with "Another one bites the dust".

I find that "Row, Row, Row your Boat" is an effective variation when teaching young children. Or the elderly not as well acquainted with modern pop/rock. :angel:

Infant CPR, too.  I've had to do Heimlich on precisely zero adults.  I've knocked... I think three things out of my daughter, and two out of a dog.  Infant choking thing happens to work really well on small dogs.
