Attack of the Forty Foot Colon!!

I heard this news story on the radio, this morning. Apparently, some health advocacy group has built a 40 foot long, four foot high model of a human colon, somewhere in Houston. The public is invited to crawl through it and learn about healthy versus unhealthy colons. Hoo, baby! Do them Texans know how to party, or what?

Dave Barry’s been there. You can, too!

I walked thru a giant model of a heart - it had the audio of a heartbeat. So what would the audio for a colon sound like? :eek:

It was pretty much my commute route to work today.

I think I saw this topic discussed somwhere around here already. Ah yes, here it is. If you check out the second link from ArchiveGuy, it will show you all the cities it will be visiting on its tour across the U.S.

If you get tired crawling through the colon, is there a stool at the end to sit on?

No, there are no full sized stools but I hear they’re giving away samples…

Awww, crap! I guess I didn’t do the search correctly. But, it’s coming to Boston! Yippee! :rolleyes:

Nothing, I repeat nothing, could prepare me to follow that link and eventually stumble upon a photograph of a K9-Unit officer in body armor and full tactical uniform, pistol on her hip, leaning against the side of a massive colon, while her canine partner lounged inside the rolling walls of the great orifice.

Nothing can spoil this moment for me, not even the realization that I’m obvious far more disturbed than even I knew, because I think I’ve just fallen in love.

So much for the therapy.

Sounds like a shitty day out… :stuck_out_tongue:
