George,

 GP> This would've been in the early to mid 1990s.

  Your name sounds very familiar.

 GP> You're off the beaten path & not close to a city?

  I'm in the southwest part of Little Rock, but it's a few miles to
the stores where I shop.

 GP> Can you order from Amazon & have stuff you need delivered? We do a lot
 GP> of that now, using up our various covid relief cheques.

  Not the way folks steal stuff out of my mailbox and off my front porch.
Plus, I have chiropractic appointments at midday, and ham radio traffic
nets in the evenings. So, I can't wait forever for these jokers to show up.

  I can order groceries from Kroger, and have prescriptions delivered from
my pharmacy, but that adds delivery charges to the bill.

 >  GP> I had my wisdoms out in '91 &, yup, I'm a bleeder, too -- gross as
 >  GP> anything, as it keeps gushing coppery mouthfuls

  The diet of scrambled eggs, mashed potatoes, and ice cream, got old fast.
I can gum stuff now, if needed...but I prefer to graze. <G>

 GP> in child birth the passage is designed to do this & will dilate some.
 GP> (the placement of the G-Spot does a lot to help this), & at the end you
 GP> get a eautiful human baby.

  And, unlike the female cervix, the male penis and urethra cannot dialate.

 GP> For me, with stones, it's a jagged rock tearing its way through a
 GP> hair-sized tube with no built-i flexibility.  At the end I get a spiky
 GP> chunk of rock.

  It looks like a pebble I've seen on the ground. 

 GP> I suggest kidney stones could be compared to giving birth to a dead
 GP> porcupine, breach.

  Now, that's a royal pain in the posterior and elsewhere!!

 GP> ObFunny:

 GP> A guy in an alley tried to sell me his kidney stones.
 GP> I said that's a hard pass for me.

  Sort of like the joke where the coach asked the kid if he could pass
a football. The kid replied "Only if I can swallow it". :P

 GP> It's obviously worse to pass a kidney stone than giving birth to a
 GP> baby. Because people always say they want another baby but no one's
 GP> ever said they want another kidney stone. (ok, this one is too true to
 GP> be properly considered funny by me & other victims of kidney stones)

  As the tagline notes, "if men could get pregnant, abortion would be a
sacrament".

 GP> Q: What did the kidney stone say to the man?
 GP> A: Urine trouble.

  In spades.

 GP> Q: What happens when a kidney smokes weed?
 GP> A: It gets kidney stoned.

  If you have several, you can name them "Sly And The Family Stone".
