Ahhhh, laproscopically then. Would that they had been able to do that with
mine. The recovery would have been halved or better.

Isn't that an *amazing* length of clear tubing? I was fairly gob-smacked.

Naaaaaaahhhhh, the gall bladder works on its own agenda. 

Thinking back I had had some gall stones passing that I had written off to a
pair of McDuck's McDoubles and a large lemonade causing acid indigestion. Only
when the pain became more severe (even to the point of nausea) did I put my
thinking cap on and self-diagnose gall stones. Of course my primary care
croaker tried to sell me on it being ulcers and prescribed omeprazole (generic
Prilosec). And I continued to pass stones from time to time. So, I discontinued
the pills and it didn't make any difference in the frequency of the stones. 

Then came the 4th of July and a really severe,
go-directly-to-the-emergency-room attack. Where they *finally* agreed with my
self-diagnosis of gall stones. And we made plans to do elective surgery and get
rid of the dratted thing. Of course the gall bladder woke up, looked around,
and tossed a monkey wrench into those plans.

  slap on the cheese. Dress up the bun with your condiments,
