I have a picture of me standing in front of the railing with the dried up falls behind me. Massive amounts of fallen rock at the bottom. It was said, at the time, that an Indian canoe had been found at the bottom of the falls.

The sporran is a good weighted manpurse that can hold the front of the kilt from flying up in the wind.

My uncle always went commando when he wore his kilt for parties and special occasions. He was very popular with the ladies who'd been drinking. They always wanted to know what he was wearing under his kilt. He always invited the ladies to "Ha' a wee peek". Sobered those gals right up. Commando for the win!!!

The worst present I ever gave anyone was 10 years ago at Christmastime. I had asked my son daily for 2 months what he wanted for presents and he kept putting me off. So I bought him a helium tank and a bag of balloons. Mothers can be so cruel...

One Christmas I gave a woman a "How to host a murder" game. Four years later she gave it back to me, still in it's original packaging. She had no idea I was the one who gave it to her. She regifted my present. How awkward...

Miss Cellania,
Thanks for the update. My aunt was a head nurse at that "hospital" and she quit because she said the entire staff was crazy.Not funny crazy but 'possessed'
crazy. She said it was the scariest place she ever worked. I wonder if the apartments on the land where the hospital now sit are experiencing any paranormal activity...?

I grew up in Massachusetts (born & bred) near Salem. It's a nice town/village but pretty touristy. There used to be a Psychiatric Hospital in Danvers up on a hill and everyone always said that that was where the witches has been hung. I believe the hospital was torn down years ago but have no idea what's in it's place since I have moved away. Anyone know?
Side note: A few years ago some idjit decided to do a summoning in the Salem cemetery to try to raise the spirit of one of the women who was hung from the witch trials and had a nasty experience. Apparently the spirit resented the intrusion of her eternal rest...

I have heard of flesh eating fish that are put into water tubs and people sit in the water while the fish nibble off the bits of debris/necrotic flesh on the patients.
Also - leeches (the best come from Ireland, BTW) have an anticoagulant in their saliva and they were used to treat blood clots because they broke down the clot and allowed the blood to get to the affected area quicker than the body's usual 2-3 weeks process. My mom & I tried to get the doctors to use leeches on my dad when he threw a clot in his leg and they just laughed at us. Now he has 1/2 foot. I still think leeches would have helped him.

My dad has polycythemia. He clots faster than normal. He found out the hard way he had it when they replaced a hip and he threw a clot in his leg. Ended up in IT for 41 days. The hospital put him in a coma 2x accidentally(!) and he had half his foot chopped off. The rest of the family got tested and we're okay. The doctors got enough $$ to buy very nice sports cars and yachts. Ah, thanks health insurance!!

I bought the Mountain Dew Throwback soda. I LOVE it! It has a fresher, fruitier (grapefruit) taste. I hope they keep it. Now if I could only find "Mexican" Coca Cola I'll be a happy camper. They call it "Mexican" Coke because it has cane sugar and NO H F corn syrup. Tastes so much better but I can't find it anywhere.
They did a study and found switching your pop to cane sugar based ones actually had people losing weight even though the did not diet or change their eating habits any other way. Did you know the U.S. is the only country that makes Coke w/HFCS?

It's an ashtray that's self emptying. The lever on the side slides and opens the ash tray on top which then drops the butts into the container below.

Jewel ice cube tray, please.

I worked in a gourmet cheese and wine shop for a few years and Limburger cheese is not the worst smelling cheese out there. It's a toss-up between Stilton and Cheshire. The warmer the cheese gets the worse it smells. The odor hangs in the air and doesn't dissipate. All wrapped cheeses will eventually get moldy. One of our jobs was to have to scrape off the mold and repackage cheese. No one wanted to touch the Stiltons and the Cheshires and the swearing that went on from the customers when they walked into the store while we were 'at it' was remarkable...
