My sleep and after-hours work schedule has been throw off thanks to Boardwalk Empire and this might explain the lack of updates. We have the latest Walking Dead to get out of the way and then things should get back to normal.

In unrelated medical news… Today I was updating a surgery website for the day-job and ran across something weirdly bizarre. Most days my “subconscious ignore filter” kicks in for any gory photos, I’ve just kinda gotten numb to them.

For this particular assignment I needed to resize an image with embedded text so I actually needed to pay attention.

Brace yourself – the caption for the photo was “Rectal Stump.” I’ve never seen those two words side by side.

What the hell does this phrase mean? I’ve held off searching since I really don’t wanna know but I have brought it up 3 or 4 times since. It’s a great ice breaker and/or conversation piece.

For the curious, it looked like a peeled tomato constricted midway by an umbilical cord of some sort. I won’t write anymore except that the period goes inside of the quotation marks. Logic does not enter that equation.
