what's Hypatia's stance on Small Bowel Obstructions?
SBO
Hypatia Posted Sep 21, 2005
Well, Dealer, I suppose it depends on what sort of SBO's we're talking about and whether they are self inser...erm....inflicted or not.
From a medical perspective, I say down with SBO's. Do what you have to do to get rid of them so everything moves the way it's supposed to. From prunes to surgery - SBO's are treatable. Don't live with seepage. Don't live with compactions. There is light at the... err... end of the tunnel.

Well then Hypatia, I'm happy to announce the coalition of SBO sufferers is happy to endorse your candidacy for president!!
Just for the record, our coalition is mainly composed of people whose SBO's are not self "inflicted".

Excellent 
Can I put your name down on the page then, Dealer? 
'It was a million-to-one shot Doc. Million to one.'

Absolutely, please add me!
Fusili Jerry!

They had to use corkscrew pasta...
And you're not the Ass-Man?
Anyway. So added.
SBO
Arnie Appleaide - Inspector General of the Defenders of Freedom Posted Sep 21, 2005
Yeah, cork-screw was a pure comedic genius decision.
No, despite the problems I have, I am not the "Ass-Man".
SBO
J Posted Sep 22, 2005
I've been called worse things than Ass-man.
Very similar in word choice, but much worse in meaning.
If I had to choose a pasta for a sculpture of myself to be made out of... I think I would choose... Ramen
SBO
Hypatia Posted Sep 22, 2005
Jodan, I have always imagined you as more bow-tie pasta than Ramen.
I myself am a cannelloni - a round plump shell filled with goodnes.

Linguine for me - thick and hard to cook right, but a hearty meal when done right.
SBO
J Posted Sep 22, 2005
Linguine? Well you're just the sort of person we want to see as a supporter then
Bow Tie pasta, H? Doesn't that seem a bit formal?
SBO
Arnie Appleaide - Inspector General of the Defenders of Freedom Posted Sep 22, 2005
How about farfalle then?
SBO
J Posted Sep 22, 2005
Yeah, me too.
I know how to make simple noodles. Not orecchiette. Or farfalle. Really, I have trouble preparing anything whose name I would normally mistake for a musical term.
