How many homes, even with medical types, have otoscopes in them? My wife was a nurse and I’m a flight paramedic, and we sure don’t. Those things ain’t cheap!
Centuries ago, before wax was widely available and cheap, earwax was collected by poor and moderate income people and used to wax thread. Waxing thread was used to make thread stronger and easier to pull through tough fabric.

9 years ago today, Robb mentioned my great-great-great grandfather by full name. I went by AshburnStadium in those days. Thanks again, Robb!

I want to wax poetic about this one.

I heard there are special vacuums that suck water and wax out of ears.

My only problem with earwax is when it plugs up my hearing aid.

If Joe had any wax in his right ear it sure didn’t show!

I go to see the ENT doc tomorrow to get mine cleaned. I need to go about every 9 months.
