It is probably stuck in your gall bladder... that is where all the bubble gum and fingernails end up after ingesting them.... autopsy will be the final word on this one...

(what am I doing back here??)

Russ - are you serious?! My gall bladder is full of gum and beer can pull tabs?!

This is a first: LEB, can you confirm this FISHY statement of Russ's? Is my gall bladder holding on to the hard items that can't be broken down?

Quick, Lois, a man's life is at stake here!

Crimpergirl,

That pencil swallowing incident happened more than 10 years ago. Several months ago I ran into one of my former students from that time, and he must be in his early-mid twenties now. The first thing this guy says to me, after hello is, "hey, remember that time when Danny so-and-so swallowed that pencil in your class?"

I've heard the pencil swallowing story at the high school where I now teach (no kidding), which is in the same neighborhood as that middle school. The length of the pencil in these stories tends to be greatly exxagerated. Had Danny swallowed a full length pencil, I'm certain my teaching career would have ended a long time ago. Maybe I could have written a book and sold the rights for a TV movie.

L, I'm rejoicing in the fact it was a pain free dump. I didn't see it embedded or floating around.

Uh oh. I think I am having some sympathy pains here...

(I guess that is what two straight days of nothing but (haha, I said but) flax raisin bran will get me)

No, it's not, it's floating gently down a sewer pipe and into our municipal drinking water.

This thread has sooooooooooooo gone down the drain.

And now Crimpie's having sympathetic gastro pains....

I'm going to go drink plum wine and eat chop sticks...I will not be back.

Happy Friday y'all!

Eat chopsticks, L?

be sure to start a new thread about that though, I think that is really taking this whole fork tine thing to the next level. bravo.

Well Caught--seeing how Dirtbag's into plastic forks (or rather, plastic forks are into him), I thought the least I could do was munch a wooden chopstick to make him feel better.

It's all natural bamboo...or possibly balsa wood...and with a little plum wine to grease the palate, hey...might not be so bad, I thought.

I was wrong.

I couldn't even bite off an end. Those el-cheap-o chopsticks are tough as iron spikes. No utensil eating for me--sorry Dirtbag...you're in this one alone.
