Looking around on the Google for colonoscopy prep, I have found some generally comforting information, but mostly I have found crazy people.
For instance: I found a web site where people actually take pictures of their poo! They are so grossed out about it that they want to share it with you. So they fish whatever it is out of the bowl, I swear, and they take pictures of it. And then they post them on the web. And then they brag about it.
When I worked for Fezziwig, one of the younger salesdudes from the UK would go on vacation to Thailand with his wife, where they would go for green tea enemas and colonic irrigation and gladly shared these facts with anyone who dared say, "Hullo, Clive, where did you go on holiday this year?"
I can think of a lot of pleasant reasons to go to Thailand. To sight-see. To meet the people. To enjoy the fabulous food. Having someone putting a nozzle where it does not belong does not qualify as a good reason to visit Thailand. Ever.
And from there, there are discussions about pee. I don't even want to talk about it, but just to add my voice to the general chorus, one thing guaranteed to ruin my day is realizing I am sitting where a hover-er has just been. These are women (as Queen Mediocretia described in a blog post) who hover over the toilet seat and fail to clean up after themselves.
Anyway, that was gross, this is gross and by the way, these pipes are clean.

1. No cheating. Mr Wonderful thought he could clean himself out, then eat breakfast right before and it wouldn't make it to his colon before the test. The doctor went in, saw the breakfast shall we say, and Mr. W. had to pay for it.
2. Enjoy your cleanliness. Someone handed me an apple muffin and I sucked it back before I realized I was dirtying up my spotless beautiful colon.
Becs,
OK. This is kind of weird. BUT, I was on the 15 Minute Lunch blog, reading comments and saw yours. My name is Bex so I took notice of the similarities of our names. So I was curious and peeked onto your blog and saw...something that I, too, have blogged about. Weird, eh?
Anyhoo, if you get a minute check it out http://rqmitchell.blogspot.com/

Take care and see you around the blogosphere!

OMG! OMG! It's my alter ego! If I had not been raised by wolves, I probably would have ended up married with three Things, living close to Atlanta, and chronicling it all on the web. No, seriously.
And unfortunately, I so get the whole scene in the Dunkin Donuts where the miffed lady storms out.
I, too, have blogged people storming out of DDs in Jersey, but this was after they finished threatening to wipe the floor with each other.
We can never meet in person. We will completely obliterate the time-space continuum, which, in light of Boy Wonder's data dictionary and Stavros's requirements may not be such a bad idea after all.
