the condensing of past posts sucks.

ah!

right next to my old pediatrician's office.

I've been laughing at that sign since before I knew it was funny.

My upper Canada aches.

And I have to say, a lower bowel clinic pretty much ranks up there on places I wouldn't really wanna work.

See also the Upper Canada Lower Bowel Society: "[t]he name UCLBS was inspired by the wit of the Upper Canada Lower Bowel Clinic in Toronto, a respected group of gastroenterologists".

(I suspect it ranks even lower on places you'd want to have to visit regularly, I think, Marc. IBDs can affect anyone at any age -- a third of those who live with this condition were diagnosed as children -- but, like many conditions, is more prevalent among certain ethnic groups than others.)
