Dave Barry: A journey into my colon -- and yours - Dave Barry - MiamiHerald.com

It is by Dave Barry. If you don't laugh at this peice you don't have a sense of humor. It is one of my favorites.

Here is a piece of the article:

The instructions for MoviPrep, clearly written by somebody with a great sense of humor, state that after you drink it, ''a loose watery bowel movement may result.'' This is kind of like saying that after you jump off your roof, you may experience contact with the ground.
MoviPrep is a nuclear laxative. I don't want to be too graphic, here, but: Have you ever seen a space shuttle launch? This is pretty much the MoviPrep experience, with you as the shuttle. There are times when you wish the commode had a seat belt. You spend several hours pretty much confined to the bathroom, spurting violently. You eliminate everything. And then, when you figure you must be totally empty, you have to drink another liter of MoviPrep, at which point, as far as I can tell, your bowels travel into the future and start eliminating food that you have not even eaten yet.

Dave Barry started out (I think) up here. He was the only guy that kept the Vancouver Colombian (the local rag) off the bird cage floor.....He was gone in a year, IIRC.

On topic: I've had 2 scopes. I prefer unconscious
