Thought at first it might be someone from here, but too good
looking, and too thin.

Sounds like you haven't seen the ones used in every hospital
around the country these days. Kinda like a tubing double flare
kit with a role-around-the-rim tubing cutter. Then if it doesn't
stop bleeding very quickly, a dab of silver nitrate to cauterize
the wound.

Did you point out to her the wonderful clothing and quilts made by hand
stitching?

Or how clean homemade lye soap and the nearby stream could get clothes?

Did you look at some of the other took chests? A few are downright scary
looking, like the urologist and the ritual circumcisionist kit.

Ron -

You could also point out that Wimmin of that era did without running water,
vacuums, refrigerators, ranges, indoor plumbing electricity and grocery
stores, for the most part.

Won't get you any points of course, but you might get some more shop time,
e.g. overnights...

And I'll bet THEY'd have given a body part for indoor plumbing and a hot
shower...

Cheers,

John

Yeah, I could do that. But I would end up without body parts. Or at least
I wouldn't be usin' 'em for a while.

My wife likes to point out the wonderful work those guys did without table
saws, band saws, 2hp wood lathes, compound miter saws and the other tools I
have in my shop.

That is true.....but I'll bet any one of them would have sacrificed a body
part for a Bosch Router and box of bits.

Some things I just don't want to see. Last year I had a Cystoctomy (sp?)
and I just stared at the ceiling or had my eyes closed. All I remember is
that I was sore for a week after and I'm never going through it again for
ANY reason.
