"Miss Otis Regrets" --with quite a punch
which explained why she couldn't go along
with her friends to a lunch.
In Germany, with his face seen hidden behind a red book cover,
they are now in court trying a nurse
not for killing a wayward lover
but for doing something quite a bit worse.
When nursing routines had him bored
and on the brink of resignation
he decided another skill needed to be explored--
becoming expert at resuscitation.
Naturally this needed having subjects
either at or slightly beyond the brink of death
and it could make for quite daunting projects
to be there just at his or her next to last breath.
With Germanic thoroughness, therefore
he reached the conclusion
his patients had to helped to death's door
in order to avoid confusion.
But since learning any skill requires practice and repetition
whether it's playing the piano
or bringing a great omelette to fruition
and one must necessarily expect also
a few failures along the road before one learns to cope.
A fact his defense attorney can satisfactorily explain--I hope.

Cole Porter – Miss Otis Regrets Lyrics
Miss Otis regrets she's unable to lunch today, madam
Miss Otis regrets she's unable to lunch today
She is sorry to be delayed
But last evening down in Lover's Lane
She strayed, madam
Miss Otis regrets she's unable to lunch today
When she woke up and found
That her dream of love was gone, madam
She ran to the man who had led her so far astray
And from under her velvet gown
She drew a gun and shot her love down, madam
Miss Otis regrets, she's unable to lunch today
When the mob came and got her
And dragged her from the jail, madam
They strung her upon the old willow across the way
And the moment before she died
She lifted up her lovely head and cried, madam
Miss Otis regrets she's unable to lunch today
Miss Otis regrets she's unable to lunch today
Miss Otis regrets she's unable to lunch today
She is sorry to be delayed
But last evening down in Lover's Lane
She strayed, madam
Miss Otis regrets she's unable to lunch today
When she woke up and found
That her dream of love was gone, madam
She ran to the man who had led her so far astray
And from under her velvet gown
She drew a gun and shot her love down, madam
Miss Otis regrets, she's unable to lunch today
When the mob came and got her
And dragged her from the jail, madam
They strung her upon the old willow across the way
And the moment before she died
She lifted up her lovely head and cried, madam
Miss Otis regrets she's unable to lunch today
Miss Otis regrets she's unable to lunch today

Nurse 'expresses regret' for killing up to 30 patients by giving them a drug overdose so he could show off his resuscitation skills in Germany
- Nils. H. told court he brought about cardiac arrests in 90 patients
- He is being tried for three specimen counts of murder
- The 38-year-old's full name has been withheld under German privacy laws
- He stands accused of injecting patients with dangerous medicine
- State prosecutor has said he could be involved in more than 150 deaths
- Some of the alleged victims were recovering while others were seriously ill
- Prosecutors said he wanted to practice his 'excellent' resuscitation skills
A German nurse has expressed regret for killing up to 30 patients by giving them an overdose of heart medication.
Nils H, 38, reportedly told Oldenburg regional court he brought about cardiac arrests in some 90 patients because he enjoyed the feeling of being able to resuscitate them.
H, whose full name is withheld under German privacy laws, used Gilurytmal, a medication which should only be used by doctors under strict supervision, it was said. He claimed 30 of these patients died.
Nils. H. (pictured left concealing his face as he arrives for his trial) is being tried for just three specimen murders by injecting patients with a dangerous medicine
Though H is facing charges in three murders and two attempted murders, the state prosecutor has said he could be involved in more than 150 deaths.
Prosecutors in the district court of Oldenburg said he was bored and wanted to practice his 'excellent' resuscitation skills. They are seeking a life-sentence for the defendant.

According to the prosecution, if the first attempt at resuscitation was a success, H. would sometimes make a second attempt.
Side effects include an irregular heartbeat, a drop in blood pressure and uncoordinated functioning of the heart muscle.
In cooperation with the police, the state prosecutor is currently investigating the deaths of 174 patients who died during H's shifts from 2003 to 2005 at a clinic in Delmenhorst, near Bremen.
Prosecutors in the district court of Oldenburg said Nils. H. (pictured) was bored and wanted to practice his 'excellent' resuscitation skills. He reportedly 'expressed regret' for killing up to 30 patients
The investigators will also look into deaths at H.'s previous jobs in Oldenburg and Wilhelmshaven and dozens of bodies will have to be exhumed.
In 2008, Nils H was previously sentenced to seven-and-a-half years for the attempted murder of another patient.
He gave his patient an overdose of heart medication, though the man narrowly escaped death.
The death rate in the Delmenhorst clinic nearly doubled in the time H. worked there, and use of the heart medication also increased dramatically.
But it took nearly a decade before an investigation was launched, angering relatives of the dead who are demanding information.
Though H. is facing charges in three murders and two attempted murders, the state prosecutor has said he could be involved in more than 150 deaths
A senior doctor who gave evidence in September said H was a 'passionate medic' who made a good impression on staff at the clinic.
But the doctor added: 'I found it strange that he was always on hand when patients were being resuscitated, often helping younger doctors with intubation - inserting a breathing tube into a patient's airways.'
'No one wants to believe that a colleague would rather kill patients, instead of helping them,' said Erich Joester, a lawyer for the clinic.
He said that the increased death rate had been attributed to a number of causes rather than a rogue individual.
