Blood Taker

Ok, I've had too much fun telling this story that I must now write it.

Yesterday at the dentist Blaine asked the dental hygienist what a particular machine was. The nice hygienist told him it was a Blood Pressure Machine and it takes your blood pressure. Well, apparently he understood her to say it was a Blood Taker Machine. He became very serious and said, "I don't like that Blood Taker machine. If you use it on me, I will cry." I'm missing the element of his tone here - It was much more of a lecture or a warning to her that she'd better not use it. I couldn't help but to laugh as we got it sorted out.
