Welcome back groovers.
This is the mystery item that I want un-mysteryfieing.

I think it is a dentist tooth puller outerer.
It has a cam thingie on the bottom that grips with great force, I tryed it on my little pinkie. :o

It also has a great grip handle that is made from Ivory, the handle is detatchable presumably for cleaning.

Al :eek:

Skew ChiDAMN!!

Its an old fashioned lump remover.

These days the doctors just use an enema instead

Yep, looks like the tooth puller I saw on a show, something about battlefield medicine in the US civil war I think.

I'd love to give you a coherent and considered answer to this Al, but I'm afraid I am at least one glass of red too far down the track to do so. I hope my failure gives you no grief but maybe, in the fellowship of the holy grape, perhaps you may something with which to identify.

What happened to my very sincere and highly succinct suggestion? Surely, it couldn't have been interpreted as prude vilifying. :p

Removal is 20kph or more over the limit or fail at the appeal;)
Would certainly prune the gene pool if that was the case:rolleyes:

No, you're all wrong...its a special tool used by the Bedouin, to clear nostrils after hard days of desert crossing, or severe sandstorms. Breathing through the nose can be quite difficult afterwards, as you imagine. The US Army have re-instigated its use in Iraq, hence the confusion as an instrument of torture. The US would never stoop to such tactics.:rolleyes:

Nah, it's the predecessor to the modern day tweezer ... the rounded section was for gripping the obvious for introduction to the pepper pot! :eek: :D
