My childhood dentist was named Dr. Wells. I felt just like that monkey! We didn't like the Doctor, we kids thought he was mean.

Es una foto zarrapastrosa, psicodélica y surrealista la mano huéfana, sosteniendo un cubilete inox con una nubecilla de algodón...
Magritte pudo quedar impresionado, Dalí también.

Wow, what a weathered or sunburned face on the monkey holder. I'd hate to have his job.

Looks like too much grinding to me.
