I have "fond" memories of the days of sigmoidoscopy. Some of us victims of the annual company physical used to call the sigmoidoscope the "silver stallion."

17382. Magoseph - 11/5/2005 8:02:53 PM

Was Juliette the one in charge of the "silver stallion"?

Anal and annual? That seems a bit obsessive on the part of the company, Wonk.

Mago, no such luck!

Alistair, Yes, it was unnecessarily thorough. We had to stay over one night in the hospital. Now they do the whole exam in a couple of hours and have eliminated some of the tests originally done when they started the program. Many of the Corporate officers went to Mayo in Minnesota for a couple or three days.

I'm sorry about your cat, Scott. It really hurts to lose a pet that's loved the family and has been loved by them for so long.

It is a gorgeous fall day today. Lots of wind.

I deleted my post #17387-- it was redundant since Jen posted Faith's picture in Religion.

An arrogant asshole performing colonoscopies.

Scott, I'm sorry about your Kitty, too...pets are part of the family.

Every time Klaus stops eating for a day, I fear the end might be near for my 17 year old sweetie but he's snapped back as his perky self each time. I know that one day he won't, however. I hope his going will be as peaceful as your kitty's.

alistairConnor, thanks, I feel better about the library copies now.

I'd feel even better if larky or Pelle told me it was OK, though. You are suspect with your divorce, alistairConnor. Some teensie Belgian guy told me I was wicked because I was divorced, you know: he would never introduce me to his parents. I smacked him upside the head and went away.


"Natty Dread".... badumbubumbump WHOOOOO!
Is it something I should seek out?

17392. Magoseph - 11/7/2005 12:07:50 PM

Hello, Ulgine and concerned--why are you doing up so early?

Mac, how are you?

17393. ScottLoar - 11/7/2005 12:30:01 PM

The pet now gone is as stark as an empty chair at the table, the place will not feel the same for a long while.

17394. Ulgine Barrows - 11/7/2005 12:34:34 PM

yet you'll still feel that cat trip your ankles, at times.


look down, not there

17395. Ulgine Barrows - 11/7/2005 12:39:59 PM

I miss the purring when we slept together, the most, that was the biggest loss, the purring.

17396. Ulgine Barrows - 11/7/2005 12:44:15 PM

We have a new kitty now and the purr sounds much the same, but it's not that 15-yr-old purr.


Did you have a funeral for your kitty, Scott?

17397. ScottLoar - 11/7/2005 12:52:09 PM

My wife and I are in Shanghai and my daughter in Chicago said the cat was to be cremated; she'll keep the ashes.

17398. Ulgine Barrows - 11/7/2005 12:54:50 PM

Excellent arrangements, sorry for your loss.

17399. Ulgine Barrows - 11/7/2005 1:00:24 PM

Juliette , who is Juliette?

Well. I could tell. But I won't, not without a kiss.

17400. Ulgine Barrows - 11/7/2005 1:05:15 PM

Lordy, I need to work out. My tummy is swelling in a most womanly way ~ a love pooch.

If I let it go much longer, I will be fat.

That used to be sign of the good life and being well-fed, but no longer.

17401. Ulgine Barrows - 11/7/2005 1:08:20 PM

And then the one day you find ten years have got behind you
