Rag Dolls and Colonoscopies (how do these words go together?)

My partner has always had a great sense of humor and wit, and it's nice to see him recovering that more and more since his stroke last year.

So, tomorrow he goes for a routine colonoscopy since he is of that age (men, if you're 50 or older, talk to your doctors--colon cancer is preventable!). Tonight he's drinking the "colon cocktail" that gets you clean as a whistle as preparation for the procedure. He also hasn't eaten any solid food all day, so he's a tad famished.

He's so hungry that he let fly this little gem that still has me laughing:

"I'm so hungry I could eat the ass out of a rag doll!"

Burn Incense--Get Cancer. What Next?

Jesus, Mary and the Saints--does everything cause cancer? Now there are reports that burning incense is the next thing we need to cross off our lists. So watch out all you pagans and witches as well as Buddhists and even Catholics--all those sweet offerings to the Divine are actually killing you.

I enjoy burning incense every now and then, especially outside on the deck. I haven't used it much for rituals, however. But now I'm freaked out--what about all that burning sage I inhaled this past weekend?

Oh, screw it. None of us lives forever. If we listened to all this research and advice, we'd live in a sterile box and never interact with anyone or anything. And we'd STILL get cancer!

So, burn, burn, burn away, I say!
