I swear that the nurse that took the damn thing out was reincarnated from a coach in a previous life. Either that or she was getting back at all the males in the world over the pain women have to go through at childbirth. She was freaking brutal, and she seemed to enjoy the hell out of it too.

Thanks for the explanation too, Stan. Much appreciated.
Somehow the idea of Nurse Ratched running a plastic tubing through your wee-knee is mildly amusing.

But I didn't realize they make 'em that small. One of them new-fangled nano-technology thingies?

btw Stan, I hope the new knee keeps working for you. A relative just had a replacement, he's not enjoying life much these days but he's loking forward.
