ok, well, regardless of what layout manager I use (I will be in control
of the hardware that the program is run on) why does the JList not
show up? I've been playing with this for 5-6 hours and cannot get it
to show. And I have tried layout managers, and they dont have an
affect.

You really should use a layout manager but anyway to get you going
change your constructor to this:

     public ORNote(String stringSSN, int intDxID, int intPrID)
     {
         // Create and set up the window.
         JFrame jframe = new JFrame("test");
         // Make sure we have nice window decorations.
         jframe.setDefaultLookAndFeelDecorated(true);
         jframe.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);

         setOpaque(true); //content panes must be opaque
         jframe.setContentPane(this);

         setLayout(null);
         setSize(WIDTH, 100);
         Dimension prefSize = new Dimension();
         prefSize.setSize(WIDTH, 200);
         setPreferredSize(prefSize);

         Border blackline = BorderFactory.createLineBorder(Color.black);
         setBorder(blackline);

         addWidgets();

         //Display the window.
         jframe.pack();
         jframe.setVisible(true);
     }
