Sorry people, I'll try not to bore you *too much* with my stories from work, but I just had to share this image...and I needed a lighter note after the thread about "stopping people's hearts" - Yesterday one of our doctors, (who is a very funny man as well as being a good Doctor) came out waving an X-Ray around, stating:

"Well, I've discovered what this man's problem is...he's an Ostrich!" The X-Ray is as it appears above...no post work, the ovoid object is actually a very full bladder filled with radio-opaque dye! Well, we all had a bit of a giggle over that one. I popped the X-Ray up on the light box and snapped a photo of it, with my digital. The man who's pelvis it is asked me if he could have a copy, so I better go & print one up...

If the person was standing facing you, that would be their left side Jordy! Speaking of work...gotta go now! Take care.

So that's where the stomach is! Geee I thought it was higher up than that. I guess you can tell who ISN'T a mastermind of phisiology(sp). Bsteph
