Hey, a while back you started a thread on Old Time Radio.
Do you remember an episode of a program about a guy who was subject to catatonia and had a "spell." Only his jacket (with a note in it that explained his condition) was stolen by a crook and sold to a pawnbroker? And he had a bracelet, too, that a couple of kids took and tried to melt down? And he found himself on the autopsy table unable to move?
Damn, that was one of the most exciting radio shows ever. Have you ever heard of it? I've no idea what the name of it was.
Believe me I don't have alot of time on my hands. I am a VERY nostalgic person! I just have ALOT of wierd interests...how I have time to connect them all I have no Idea.
I am a big history buff, especially old Hollywood, Deaths of famous people...I could go on and on!!!!!
Oh I am a BIG world war II buff! I love the old radio shows especially the ones done during world war II!!!
If I could go back in history...WOW!!!!

This story is proof that there are quacks in all sorts of medical fields. I hope that the poor guy survived his injuries!

Awesome...
Your Welcome!
Wow!! What a guess. I need to go to work tomorrow and listen to it now.
www.radiospirits.com is a good place for old time radio shows as well!!
That's my kind of book: big pictures and little words!
Have you read Paul Fussell's Wartime?

That's another good one.
That story gave me the creeps. He's lucky they didn't start with the Y incision.
Stephen King also wrote a short story about the same subject. The man in the story was bitten by a snake on a golf course and everyone thought he'd had a heart attack and died. In the morgue the female doing the autopsy was moving his wang around looking at a scar or something, and him getting an erection was the only thing that saved him. The venom had rendered him unable to move or talk.
Damned if I recall the name of the story....I'll add it when I find it.
"The Hitchhiker" with Orson welles or "Sorry wrong number" are two excellent stories.
I don't think it stands out as one of the better episodes but it should have been...its kind of creepy! but I have only heard a couple really bad episodes of Suspense.
"The doctor Prescribed Death" with Bela Lugosi is also a good one.
Or "To Little to live on" with Ozzy and Harriet...that is VERY well written.
Well you get the Idea I have listened to tons of them!!!
