The good old days..


I came across this little historical artifact today (or at least a picture of it); believe it or not it's a list of reasons for admission into a mental institution from the 1800's. Looking down this list though it looks to me more like a list of suggested names for your new heavy metal band..  

"Masturbation for 30 years"... really? (bet that chafes something rotten!); mind you, putting the obsessive masturbators in with the nymphomaniacs is asking for trouble.. although, I'm particularly impressed with "over study of religion" as a reason for committal, perhaps those times weren't so bad after all? :) ...
