3 Doctors were bragging amoungst themselves. First said, I'm SO good, I had a patient who lost 7 fingers. I reattached them, and he's now a concert pianist. Second said, I'm SO much BETTER. I had a patient who lost one arm and both legs. I reattached them, and not only did he run a marathon, he's now a running back with the NFL. Third said, I am MUCH better. I had this cowboy, riding his horse 'hell bent for election' and ran straight into the side of a train. All I had to work with was a cowboy hat and an aXXhole... and he's now the President!

running and ducking... Noreen

OMG you are as mad as a hatter Els, lol

Close. What it has, if I remember correctly*, is a collar with a tiny thumb screw to tighten the collar. The pin is to hold the collar in place when the thumb screw is loose.
