AvalonSeeker Ah, I must say I how much I've laughed during these comments. Lynne and Charisma, you've missed your true calling as comedy writers....

	AvalonSeeker I hate to say it, but I still have the ELO album, bought it new way back in the day, I counted my vinyl the other day and I have 180 albums! (Not to mention the 2 stack containers of 45's) Oh yeah, great shot....

	AvalonSeeker Bob, go back to that picture and READ what it was, think about it, how could REAL blood be there from all those years ago???

	AvalonSeeker Hmmm....lemme see, I'm pretty sure it was FOOD, probably the institutional kind, sort of like we get at the hospital where I work every day, overcooked veges, mystery meat, etc, but I'm sure it came from a freezer and then went into the oven. Cripes.

	AvalonSeeker Lynn, your post is most insightful and informative. Thank you for taking the time to educate. Ever think of becoming a politician? ( Meant in a positive way)

	AvalonSeeker I'm disappointed...no one has mentioned the soap dispensers hanging from the ceiling (apparently they are too high for the little girl to reach to wash her dress....

	AvalonSeeker Jeez, Lynne, I was so glad I wasn't drinking anything when I read your comment about the "whaling wall"!!!

	AvalonSeeker Well, there would be a mattress on it. This is merely a non-electric hospital bed. You would manually wind the head or knees up with a handle at the bottom of the bed. It hasn't been all that long ago that a LOT of hospitals still had these beds.

	AvalonSeeker Sounds like an episode from X-Files.....

	AvalonSeeker I believe in laws and law enforcement, but honestly, what is it about this site that keeps patrols on constant duty? I mean, how BIG is the police department??

	AvalonSeeker Well, I can tell you, I work on an ortho unit, and we just got brand spankin new beds with frames over them that hold trapezes for patients to assist in lifting themselves.

	AvalonSeeker The bar designs are quite intricate, I thought the windows were some ornate stained glass!

	AvalonSeeker I'm not sure how this speaks to the equipment in the hospital where I work, but this sort of wheelchair is quite common.

	AvalonSeeker Yeah, but what if you were L Greene and accidentally got F Greene's toothbrush...aackkk!!

	AvalonSeeker The two brushes in the middle of the left cabinet-see that's why I don't want my toothbrush in a communal cabinet...ewww.....!!!

	AvalonSeeker Sort of a "land shark" but only on a wall...(thanks SNL)

	AvalonSeeker Nice old Singer machine, looks like it might have been mounted in a cabinet once upon a time.

	AvalonSeeker These chairs look like ones I used to have...so that's where they went when I got rid of them...
