Shortwave Earrings
Hey, why do people wear earrings anyway?
———- from M. Winkler of Smeltville, Wisconsin
Originally, ear “rings” were bells that people wore on their ears so they could find each other in the dark. Unfortunately, this often caused deafness and/or insanity. Once lanterns were invented, they were used. But a quick turn of the head often resulted in spilled oil and burned shoulders. With the invention of personal property, wealthy people had their slaves carry the lanterns for them. Since they already had these holes in their ears, they began wearing jewels in them. I’ve gone one step further and had tiny geranium dioldes implanted in my ear lobes. Thanks to these decorative and useful crystals, I can receive AM, FM and some cellular phone calls, hear perfectly and have no problems with ear wax. Now that’s a bonus.
