Regarding the Colonoscopy bit, I really prefer not to miss the party so I go sans sedation. The movie is really a neat exploration of the last (rear) frontier. You get to hear all the jokes during the procedure and it really is not uncomfortable. And, you get to drive yourself home.

Of course I don’t do numb for root canals either. Blows my dentist’s mind! Think it hurts him more than it hurts me. Just don’t show me any blood, particularly if its mine!

Keep up the good work Lex!

I smell a scam. Imagine drawing flight pay without actually flying. I think I’ll write my congressman and demand, demand I say, that Lex be forced to fly.

A little more gouge on the scoping business – there are two forms of prep in common use, golytely and phospho-soda. The first involves drinking a gallon of liquid. The second involves two ounces of salty stuff in 16 of 7up, twice. The phospho soda is sold as an enema ingredient – put in either end – works the same !!! Despite that unappetizing thought I think it’s the better way to go. Each doc has his druthers – I got my GP to find one that did it that way.

Enough of that. Let’s talk about guns or planes or women or something….

Gary,

I got my “first time” coming up after the Holidays. I heard the procedure is like you said but I have the “gouge” that the purging and starvation beforehand are the pits.

I’ve never been knocked out before..hell I hope I don’t talk in my sleep.

Well, if that instapundit can do it, so can I. Do I sound scared?

Thanks for the head’s up on what the future holds, Gary. As for going flying again, not unless the war takes a turn for worse. Much worse.

You have to get a physical every year to keep the flight pay rolling in. Seems silly, but there it is.
