There's some skill there. But did you read the comments following? It's hard to imagine how some people think.

Reminds me of the story about a dad who gives an old watch to his daughter. The girl thinks it's beautiful but can't figure out where the battery goes. Her dad says, "It's a wind up watch. It doesn't take batteries." The girl says, "Wow! A watch that doesn't take batteries. What will that think of next?"

My mum passed away in 1981 and last year when I was in the UK I was given her watch amongst other things.  Well I got the watch fixed and every time I go to put it on I almost start to curse that the battery is dead then I realize I have to wind it up.  ::) Have I mentioned that I used to be blonde.  :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D
