Liver's Little Helper

Little Bear-nik is fine. She called Plottie yesterday to tell him so, and that made him feel much better. Who needs a crummy old gall bladder, anyway?

OF COURSE, Plotnik is now worried about his own gall bladder, but he had to read up on it to figure out what it is, where it is and what it does. Turns out it aids the liver in digesting fats. You can tell that the person who invented the name 'gall bladder' didn't like gall bladders, or else he'd have given it a far more positive spin name, like 'Fat-Modifying Pocket' or 'Liver's Little Helper.'

Does anyone but Plot see that the liver looks a lot like Liberace's hair?

In general, it is not a good thing to dwell on things you cannot see, such as everything inside your body. Those things are kept in there so you can't look at 'em.



Did anyone watch the Democrats Sunday night? To The Great Plotnik, there seemed to be only one completely honest person in the bunch, and that was Joe Biden. Joe Biden? Who in the world is Joe Biden? He didn't even get into the news photo.

Hillary's OK. Barak's OK. Dodd's OK. Edwards is too pretty. Richardson's very good but too fat, so no chance, because only one fat man is allowed per election and that will be Al Gore.

The Republicans were on last night. They looked like a casting call for As The World Turns.
