Oh..... the new "thing," for fundies around here, is to promote

Does the job come with a hat?

No, but it does have a much nicer looking collar.

Loose bowels? :)

Liver biopsy yesterday. They clipped a couple of nerves and it hurts
like hell.

You allow them to cut your liver, but won't allow the doctors to stick a
tube up your ass. The ass-scope would hurt much less. ;)

Actually, I was surprized at how easy and simple the whole procedure
was. In and out in nothing flat. Little slit, little CO2, snip, sewn
up and a short time recovering.

Pretty cool. Problem came later as the local wore off - move this way
or that way and I felt like I was being stabbed with a red hot poker.

But I feel MUCH bettererer this morning.

It sounds worse than it is actually.

Because of two of the more exotic meds that I take for my RA, it
requires one after six years of treatment if they notice something or
other on a sonar exam. They did so that was that.

Another thing I saw that was really cool was the new color HD sonar -
er...sonagram machines. It's like taking a freakin' picture of your
guts.

How many gigs of ram did that machine have? ;-) Good luck with your
recovery.

I don't honestly know, but it must have been a bunch. All digital too
- the scans went onto a DVD in HD. The video format was, get this,
AVI. I'm giving some thought to posting the scan, but the file is
huge. :)

I was told that it's an HP computer with some kind of ganged Dual Core
Intel processor and custom software. Very impressive in any case.

And thanks - nothing serious.

Er, by the way, was it WinXP or Vista operating system? And don't tell us
it was Mac OS X based.

We've already discounted this anomaly. It's not the 'parade' to which Harry

Looks like Idaho has these parades too.

Nope, wrong state.
Maybe. I been skeptical of Idahoans since that one in Portland, OR
tried to enlist me in an Alaskan platinum heist.
He was a cross-eyed stump blaster, and almost as scary as the lesbian
pro wrestler who got in my face in Norfolk because her girlfriend was
making eyes at me. Said she was going to kick my ass.
Anyway, I avoided mishap in both cases, and I'm going to avoid these
parades too.

--Vic

I don't blame you!

What happened with the lesbian's girlfriend? Did you leave her too?

Vic,
If you were creative you would have talked them into a 3 some.

Glad to hear you are feeling better.

So when are you going to get your ass scoped?

I took the family and out of town friends down to the Atlanta Aquarium
over Thanksgiving weekend. They had a large flat panel screen of some
reef fish. One screen had a Win error message on the screen. I should
have taken a photo.
