Do you suppose it's still in there?

1. Frankly, I think that explains a lot about you. Poisoned you and warped your mind, maybe? LOL

2. But when people claim that I've lost my marbles
I can tell them that I have a fair idea of where at least one of them might be...

12. nyuck nyuck
probably around noon

Got panicky by 5, x-ray next day, followed by clean-out liquid and another x ray the next day, then an appendectomy when it appeared to be lodged there. Surgeon got his healthy appendix but missed the battery. Mom found it two days later in the "collection" bucket. Casing was a bit corroded but it hadn't ruptured.

redundant I know, but: Male children.:eyes:

13. Just be glad that we're living in the digital age
Otherwise, he might have swallowed a grandfather clock.


Glad he's okay, though!

11. It is stuck in the wads of gum you swallowed from ages 5 to 18.
One day, you will have to have your colon scoped, and they will give you some stuff that will get it out of there, along with the 20 oz. porterhouse you had 10 years ago.

16. A marble, that's nothin'


I knew a guy that swallowed an open fingernail clipper when he was 6. He was playing with it in his mouth and swallowed it when he fell off the back of the sofa. They had to go to the hospital to get the thing out.
