Barbie: thanks for a funny and witty post.

Colonics are supposedly a lot of horse manure (pardon the pun) afa better

health. Another way for the scam artists to take your money. If you need

to " clean out your system " a good old fashioned enema will do it although I

have no idea why anyone would have one when prunes, prune juice or Senekot

(available over the counter) accomplish the same thing but much easier.

At any rate colonics are getting a bit OT for this board.
