I voted for "device for inspecting diamonds."
What's an egg proofer? ???
I chose "device for inspecting diamonds," but considering I thought the sundial was a sextant ..... :-\
This is fun, David - thanks!
Marie
David, where do you find these strange objects? :o I have no ideas what this thing is. :-\ I guessed it's a device for inspecting the quality of coal, but the truth is, I simply don't know. ???
Music box with a "light show" feature
Ok....I'll go first...
I think its a device for looking at diamonds.....
Hey, I didnt see the second picture until I came in here to reply......but now I have, I still think its for damonds.....
Now that you all know the "egg proofer" isn't the correct choice we'll move on.... ;) ;D
Isn't that what those things are called when they check to see if there's a baby chicken inside the egg? Don't they candle the eggs in a proofer? Or is it just called a candler? Or is it called something ELSE? :laugh:
Now that you all know the "egg proofer" isn't the correct choice we'll move on.... ;) ;D
There's still 9 other choices and plenty of confusion up there for everyone! :D
And to think I grew up in Indiana! Sheesh! :-\ ::) :laugh:
dang it! I was fixin to guess egg proofer!
*grumble grumble*

Never know Jess....David might be foolin, and that IS what it is.
When I saw "egg proofer" I thought it was something to see if eggs were good or bad (for eating).
But then again, Im a city gal... ::)
ok I picked Microscope slide viewer..
:P :P
:laugh: :laugh: No way Jess.............
hmmm...let me think...
what did Kerry pick??
Any more guesses? Because I'll be revealing the answer in the next day or two. So if you haven't made a guess yet, you better do it quick! :D
The numbers always intrigue me with these polls. 182 people have viewed this thread but only 8 people have submitted a vote! :-\ I guess that means 174 people visited this thread but didn't vote! ::)
Same thing's happened at my What Is It? thread. To quote an abbreviation I learnt here at BetterMost - WTF! ???
Okay, I will post the answer a little later this evening. I will give you a hint though. ONE person did answer it correctly!
So somebody will be winning a lamb! :D
Oh, shit......i looked up at the poll, and 4 people answered the same as me, so I guess I missed out....
looks like I better go out and buy a chicken.
Yeah, I look in most days, to see what others have voted for and WAITING for David to put up the answer.
Hurry up Daviid, I need to know whether I'm having roast lamb for dinner on Sunday.
But then again are we supposed to watch the sheep, not eat em....
(tapping fingers on desk.....waiting.....waiting.....)
YOU EAT THE LAMBS!!!??
:o :o :o

How observant are you?
If you look closely at the phrase below, you will find clues to the winner of this contest. Remember, the devil is in the details.
Don't feel bad because there was only one lone winner this time. We'll have another What Is It soon, and you'll once again have a chance to be a star and win a lamb. So, allow for happiness to be your state of mind! :D
Can you figure it out?
Notice I made bold the words Lone, Star and State....
Lone Star State.
Lone Star State = Texas.
And who lives in Texas?
JESS!!!
Yup! Jess won the contest! The object is indeed a MICROSCOPE SLIDE VIEWER. It is in fact a Bausch and Lomb Optical Company microscope slide viewer.
So, Jess gets a lamb from Ennis and Jack! (http://i77.photobucket.com/albums/j43/Davidindy/babylamb.jpg)
Jessy had a little lamb
Her hubby shot it dead
And now it goes to work with her
Between two bits of bread........
Congratulations Jess......at least this time we dont have to put up with you chucking a sissy fit about losin......... ::) ::)
Thank you David....I even asked Uncle Garry and HE didn't know what it was!
(that isnt' cheating is it?)
David, these games are really fun. Are we going to have a 3rd round for August?
:)

*Evil maniacal 'mad scientist' laughter!!*

OH poo !!!
I wish I had looked at this one before.It is the only one I knew.We had one at University when I was doing optometry, along with a whole bunch of Bausch and Lomb instruments from ancient to ultra tech.They still make the best spectacle and contact lenses, and the best large optical equipment.I have just kicked myself as I had no clue about the previous two.
I am off to have a big sulk and a small tantrum !!!!
I know , very childish.
