Subject: BS: how to swallow a camera From: Donuel Date: 12 Dec 05 - 01:05 PM Today I swallowed a wireless camera. Like most pills the size of large vitamin capsules it got stuck under my epiglotis. This part of human anatomy has always been rather poorly designed. If they had a highly viscous but clear fluid to swallow the camera it might not happen so often. I asked the tech how often this happens and she said about 1 in 10. After an hour the doctor stuck some scopes down my throat and said He could not see it. I believe all the gagging during that procedure may have disloged it but I can still feel it as if it is still there which may just be an after sensation. If you ever have to swallow one of these horse pills I suggest you keep your chin close to your chest when swallowing and not tilt your head back. I was given no tips and was merely ordered by an office worker to swallow it with the aid of t tiny paper cup of tap water. Meanwhile I should avoid going to an airport since the reciever belt I am now wearing looks like a bomb with flashing lights. No matter how highly trained people contend air marshalls are, I suspect they are operating under an extremely fearful mindset that allows for a shoot first and ask latter policy to exist. |

Subject: RE: BS: how to swallow a camera From: Donuel Date: 12 Dec 05 - 04:50 PM While walking around a department store today I was approached by a manager and asked what was under my coat. I pulled back my coat to reveal the blinkg blue light and green lights of the video capture unit. I said "its a wireless camera unit". He said that I would be a lot of trouble if I had been taking pictures inside the store. I responded "This unit must have snapped a couple thousand pictures since I first came in". "Where's the camera?" he asked. "Its where you can't see it". If I hadn't had a migraine I might have let the situation escalate to the typical absurd Larry Davidesque proportions but I simply left before before the manager had any notion about what to do. |

Subject: RE: BS: how to swallow a camera From: Rapparee Date: 13 Dec 05 - 08:59 AM Will you be posting the pictures on the Internet? If it's a movie will you tell us when it's released and where so we can all go to the premiere? I can see it: the spotlights sweeping the sky, the actresses in their evening gowns, the men in formal dress, the politicians, the limos -- all to see Donuel's magnum opus GUTS!!!! |
