It is an antique magic fortune teller. You place your finger in one of the depressions and ask it a 'yes or no' question. The lid opens up and if the answer is 'no' it cuts off the tip of your finger. Harsh, you say? Ha! Fortune telling is NOT for the weak!
I was and still am a big fan of the 3 stooges. Curly was always my favorite and when Shemp came on board I couldn't stand him. I didn't know why Curly was gone, just that Shemp had taken Curly's place. How dare he? It was sacrilege to me. I didn't know Curly had suffered from such bad health problems.
So, in retrospect, Shemp? I apologize for not liking you. You were just trying to keep the 3 stooges going.
I got my dress caught in an escalator one time. Ripped it up real good, twisted me around and backwards and I nearly fell hands down on the grate. The store ended up paying for a new dress. I stay off those things, now.
I had a friend that was on an escalator and it broke apart and she fell down between the steps and broke her leg.
And I had a friend get shocked by lightning through her phone during a storm. She doesn't hear so well, now.
Duct tape. See which angle the splinter is in the skin (is possible). Put the duct tape firmly over the splinter and pull it off quickly.
My dad's a beekeeper and this is a handy tip for bee stings. You have to get stung by a bee not a wasp, hornet or yellow jacket. It doesn't work on those stings. If a bee stings you (they can only sting you once) the barb stays in your skin and the bee dies. Remove the stinger with tweezers being careful not to squeeze the venom sac hanging on the end of the barb pulsing away shooting more and more bee venom into you. Put a drop of honey on the spot where you got stung and a band-aid over the honey so you don't get sticky. The pain will stop immediately. This works. I have gotten stung too many times so I know about this.
Honey is good for burns, too.
One more thing. The FDA says honey can be cut up to 50% with corn syrup and still be called 'honey', 'all natural', 'real honey' and 'organic'. Local honey is your best bet for 100% real honey.

Sorry, Shemp.
Miss you, Curly.
