    Default Unexpected sightings of str8 useage.

    While eating dinner tonight and watching a TV program about a Michigan Veterinarian named Dr. Pol, up came a sequence that had me stop chewing while watching. His assistant vet, a woman, was in a farmers barn working on a cow with one of her stomachs out of place, on the right side. Apparently, if on the left side they roll the cow on it's back and stitch the stomach back in place right thru the hide. For the right side she had to operate and reach in and move it in place and then suture it. But what got me pausing in chewing was that she followed good surgical procedures and shaved the area to cut in WITH A STRAiGHT RAZOR, and with decent skill on top of it.

    Anybody out there have other unusual uses for a str8?

    It is amazing a vet, a lady vet at that, would use a SR. Has to be her own personal preference.
    I wonder if she got the blade(s) from her Dad or other relative. Or, it could have belonged to the head vet.

    How on Earth can you eat while watching a cow get its stomach being given the switcheroo with all the blood and guts?

    If dinner was a pie, you would be able to see what was in it, assuming they also showed the cows bum hole and lips

    crouton976, you are almost absolutely correct. Rare is more flavorful. Extra rare is a little raw. Medium is starting to get chewy. And well done should never be spoken of in polite company.

    Or she could have bought it from a shop
