My colonoscopy went...

...swimmingly, just like Harry Smith's, above. (Certainly better than George Bush's, if the cartoon below is any indication.)

In fact, Dr. Shah (you didn't think his name would be O'Brien, did you?) said I had one of the most beautiful colons he had ever seen. (I would've posted the pictures, but that would be bragging.)

Seriously, it was polyp-free. And that gives me some comfort, especially knowing that my grandfather died from colon cancer.

Now Dr. Shah says I don't have to have another one for 7-10 years. (And for a typical Irishman like me, who never goes to the doctor, that means more like twelve.)
