The Mydriatic
 
Anyone been there?
I hear its a real eye-opener.

cigalechanta Oct 14th, 2004 05:26 PM

Yes, it is, and I haven't been able to close mine since.

I've heard it is a place where teachers have a hard time controlling their pupils.

Well if they get out line, I believe in old-fashioned retribution. You know...an eye for an eye.

Scarlett Oct 14th, 2004 06:01 PM

I will just keep an eye on this thread and see how it goes O-)

Patrick Oct 14th, 2004 06:25 PM

Ah, if you've seen one, you've seen them all.

indie Oct 14th, 2004 06:34 PM

a whole new meaning to the word wide eyed tourist

cigalechanta Oct 14th, 2004 06:56 PM

But seeing is believing!

coccinelle Oct 14th, 2004 06:58 PM

I don't see it.

jdraper Oct 14th, 2004 07:02 PM

You don't see it because it is an optical illusion, of course.

coccinelle Oct 14th, 2004 07:07 PM

Ohh!!

This thread is a real eye opener!

Anyone visit the capital of The Mydriatic (somewhere east of San Marino)??
I believe the capital city is Retinagrad...truly the nerve center of the area.

I had my eye on this place for a very long time. One night while I was plucking chickens, I thought, why not go? Better to have Mydriatic headaches,
than having to pluck these dead birds.
After my arrival, I settled in to a lovely room at the Mydria Motel.
My host Norman Rates was good-looking in a spooky way, but I thought, hey, what the heck I'm off tomorrow, first a shower.....

platzman Oct 15th, 2004 05:19 PM

Talking about the Mydriatic is serious business. I don't find any (vitreous) humor in it.

annesherrod Oct 15th, 2004 05:24 PM

Platzman,
You have hit a nerve with me! :-)

cigalechanta Oct 15th, 2004 05:28 PM

that was not(vitreous)humor only the facts like this thread.

annesherrod Oct 15th, 2004 05:32 PM

cigalechanta,
we need to hear what happened after your shower! Was Norman kind of cute in a mydriatic way?
just wondering......... tee hee

Now look here! Not sure what sort of lens you all are looking through, but it would be shortsighted to not tell folks that the route to the place is daunting, and the frail or boat-shy might not make it through those cataracts. Have a look at the satellite photos on a map site, especialy the rough terrain and torrential rivers, remember that what you see is what you get.
