Adapted rocking chairs! We had a million of 'em!

Peachy!

Oh yeah! That's some fantastic lighting!

Or create them. ;-)

GREAT shot! That was one expensive piece of ergonomically correct therapeutic equipment in its day.

When you see one of these deeper tubs, realize that they have to be cleaned out thoroughly between every single use, and think of how hard it would be to properly wash and sanitize one of these so that you yourself would feel OK about using it, you get a better understanding of why the rate of back injuries is so high among staff in the field of medical care and personal health services.

It is funny how I had forgotten that people would think a slab tub was exclusively used as a morgue table until you showed one of these in an earlier gallery several years back and received so many comments. It helps remind those of us in the field how odd our "normal" world is to outsiders.

Swell title! I remember the phrase "Worshipping the Porcelain Goddess" from my drinking days. :-)

Agreed, Janice.

Janice - same here!

I agree, C-Note - I was just thinking the same thing.

Oh, I love this shot! Great colors and atmosphere and all!

I'm having some memories about Motts and teleporting right about here . . . .

I believe that yet again it is the orbs of Radical Ed's beer, although I admit I have been wrong before.

I'm not Motts, but I believe it was 1907 or 1908.
