Other Shoe

The other shoe is about to drop from the Ass-Cancer Incident of last month. The Man with the Knife is comin' tomorry for that ass-cancer, and it's slice-a-ma-dice time for old Captain TMI.

I'm going to be laid up for a few days in a dreamy haze of painkillers. I think it's more than a little sick that I'm actually kind of looking forward to it.

The good news: I write real crazy on Vicodin.



(PS, friends and relatives: It's not actually ass-cancer. That's a gallows-humor deal. What it is, is just...
brrrr!)

    What?! A brrrrrr? Up your ass?! Unimaginable!

    Or, is it perhaps a forgotten anal probe left behind by little green aliens in a hurry to make it to the 7:15pm screening of "Deuce Bigalow: European Gigilo"?

    "Probe Jingo then let's get the hell outta here. I don't want to miss the previews."

    "We praise the colorectal surgeon
    Misunderstood and much maligned
    Slaving away in the heart of darkness
    Working where the sun don't shine

    Respect the colorectal surgeon
    It's a calling few would crave
    Lift up your hands and join us
    Let's all do the finger wave

    When it comes to spreading joy
    There are many techniques
    Some spread joy to the world
    And others just spread cheeks
    Some may think the cardiologist
    Is their best friend
    But the colorectal surgeon knows...
    He'll get you in the end!

    Why be a colorectal surgeon?
    It's one of those mysterious things.
    Is it because in that profession
    There are always openings?

    When I first met a colorectal surgeon
    He did not quite understand;
    I said, "Hey nice to meet you
    But do you mind? We don't shake hands."

    He sailed right through medical school
    Because he was a whiz
    Oh but he never thought of psychology
    Though he read passages.
    A doctor he wanted to be
    For golf he loved to play,
    But this is not quite what he meant...
    By eighteen holes a day!

    Praise the colorectal surgeon
    Misunderstood and much maligned
    Slaving away in the heart of darkness
    Working where the sun don't shine!"

  7. When all is said and done, they'll say - "Good ole Ned. He took the neocon's dreams, and wrecked 'em!"

    Take care and maybe they'll even give you your own radio show...

  9. Hope you can sit up soon, as my sciatica-ass vicodinic-valiumaicality is fully unprepared to duel -- in the French gentlemen's fashion -- your ass-poppingly unprepared vicodinizationality. Yeah, like that.

    Dopedly yours,

    Tom / Helmut
