So you're sitting in the hospital waiting room, waiting for your sister to have her baby, when all of a sudden the elevators doors open and out comes a screaming dad saying his wife is having the baby right now - in the elevator! A small crowd gathers as the triage nurse quickly goes in and catches the baby to a cheering waiting room. Or perhaps you want to complain about the griping young man who just wanted to go home instead of wait for a baby. There are lots of stories from the maternity ward and hospital waiting room.

The Texting Teen

This girl was texting faster than anything I've ever seen and it went on for hours. The clickety clack of her keyboard was driving me bonkers. Just when I thought it was going to be over, she gets an honest to goodness call. She starts screaming into the phone, "Oh my God, they cut her what???" My 89 year old grandma just sat and gave her dirty looks, while others laughed at this girl.
