    It was built in the Middle Ages, but the magazines in the waiting room were all from the Roman era.

    The FreeRepublic lacks a “like” button, but I want to thank everyone for the comments. Witty, smart people. Reminds me of why I keep coming back.

    The old standard method of cures for illness was..
Bleed the patient.
Build fires around the house to drive off “Bad Air”.
Bleed the patient.
Check his horoscope to see if he was born under bad star alignments.
Bleed the patient.
See if he has enemies who might have put a “HEX” or curse on him.
Bleed the patient.
Has an “Evil Eye” been cast upon him?
Bleed the patient.
Run a tube up the rectum and pump in tobacco smoke.
Then declare “The operation was a success, but the patient died.”
 
To: Ruy Dias de Bivar
    After all these years,they still practice the blowing of the smoke.
