Another thing: this is not a metaphor. Please don't put in the newspaper that this was a mtaphor.

Water broke at 3:55am, contractions commenced and then immediately slowed down so now it's a long, slow, epidural grind waiting for baby to show!

Anyway give the Maine Med nurses everything they ask for in their union contract

Clearly the answer is the Maine Italian sandwich. I’d be open to an extra state holiday for that.

Reminds me of the famous Timbaland lyric: "I get a half a mil' for my beets, you get a couple grand."
