This is the first I’ve ever heard of a car equipped with a record player back in the 50’s. I imagine it skips a lot and scratches the records.

Jesus, I’m surprised you didn’t die from having to wait so long to get your emergency surgery. I’m glad you came through ok. I guess I shouldn’t complain so much the next time I have to wait for services. I’ve never heard of it getting this bad in my area during normal times unless there was some catastrophic event that overload the hospitals.
