IMAGINE…A REAL DOCTOR’S STETHOSCOPE ACTUALLY USED BY THE U.S. ARMY MEDICAL CORPS…

Now you can be JUST LIKE THE FAMOUS DOCTORS AND NURSES ON TV and amaze and impress your friends.

My favorite part is the last paragraph:

THE DOCTOR’S STETHOSCOPE has a SPECIAL SECRET USE that will enable you to listen in on conversations in the next room by placing the sensitive rubber disc on the wall of any room (just like the FBI and private detectives).

Yeah, good luck with that.

  1. LMAO!

    Very funny. Might just try it out ;)

  2. ..it won’t work?

  3. It doesn’t work well at all. The old stand-by of listening to a glass held the wall works much better.

  4. Wouldn’t a stethoscope “actually used” by the U.S. Army Corp potentially have, like, ear wax and blood on it? “Great for snooping, too!” – mein gott would these marketing geniuses stop at nothing just to make a few bucks? Man, the 60s were SO MUCH cooler than today.

  5. I think Bush is using this right now to listen in on the conversations of the new speaker of the house, Nancy Pelosi before his last State of the Nation on Tuesday to try and get some dirt.
