    Thanks. I've never walked up the street in that part of town. I'll probably never do it again either. Not scary, just really strange.

    Nice find, Walter. Seeing this makes me realize just how far progress has taken devices like this. I have a friend who just got a new prosthesis for one of his legs. It's a real marvel of engineering. Expensive though....cost $80,000.

    I always wanted to lie naked on a bearskin rug in front of a fireplace. Cracker Barrel didn't take kindly to it.

    The store, as many in this ultra-depressed downtown neighborhood, was out of business, the result of the City's 'revitalization' project, which pretty much euthanized an already suffering old town district.

    For some probably strange reason, prosthetics fascinate me. This one being one of two items in the store was not only appealing in that regard, but also to my slightly warped sense of humor.

    From what I've seen on television, the new wave of prosthetics are amazing and can eventually, if not already, provide certain capabilities that go beyond that of organic limbs. Makes me wonder how far into the future elective installations may take place?

    I think to put this in perspective we should consider the predecessor, the peg--overall, that's quite a leap.
