ID...
Did you "save" this one in alcohol?
Mockford and I would like to see it up real close. This one could be one of several species.

Nope
Came to get my pooter ... got back, it was GONE. Now, I keep my pooter hanging on the wall of my back porch.

"pooter" sounds so gastroentological. "Aspirator" has a much more hassophisticated sound to it.
