Unsuccessful Surgery

This morning I underwent surgery to be cured of my addiction to photography.
I am happy to report that the surgery was unsuccessful.

Actually this is the hospital aboard the Aircraft Carrier Museum USS Midway.

Take a tour of the ship here: USS Midway Gallery

Good photo. By the way, there ain't no cure for photography, love, nor the summertime blues.

You don't need surgery at all in the first place and in the second place either ;))

Yeah the guy on the right is too rigid to be a compassionate surgeon ;)
