[Link](http://www.miamiherald.com/283/story/427603.html) Who else could link together: ABBA goat spit MoviPrep congress and Paris Hilton … all the while encouraging folks to get screened for colon cancer. Have you had a 17,000 foot long tube stuck up your “behindular zone”? ---

I’ve read that before and it still gives me a giggle. My doctor wants me to have one now, at the ripe old age of 41, because of my breast cancer. Gotta make sure the rest of me is good and clean! Fortunately, I get to wait until after chemo and radiation. Lovely. ---

::Reading journal:: Heh. I need one, too. I keep reading horror stories of people getting hideous cramping and pain, and it causes me to drag my feet. Wow, Dave Barry’s 60?!?
