"Unexpected Swallowing of a Knife" -- that's a grabbier title than most ones you see in medical journals.
The short item, a clinical image in this week's New England Journal of Medicine, explains that a 30-year-old woman with a history of bulimia had been bragging to friends that she no longer had a gag reflex. She put the knife into her mouth and then laughed -- at which point she swallowed the knife.

” Ah. The dreaded Typso splort. Darks, are you lurking again?”
Yeah.....he was heeere....I KNOW he was here!!
I don’t like figs or marmalade, but I like toast, especially if I’ve made the bread.
Maybe I’ll do that tomorrow - it’s been a long time since I made bread.
Young Doctor Kaylor says she’s a dog, and he has many diplomas, of a veterinary sort, all over the walls of Indian Trail Animal Hospital.
Of course, he might just have a really strange sense of humor, but I’d expect that sort of thing from the reptile vet, not the mammal vet.
That did it.....I’m goin to lunch!
From the depths of time he waits, patiently watching for the day and moment to come forth once again...
One of these times, I’m going to post all the typsos I make when you lurk. It doesn’t happen when you are active on the thread, but the minute you lurk, my tysos go into Warp Drive.
Maybe he met up with Darks on a Darks and stormy night, and didn’t recognize the force field that changed him forever.
And with that, I’m off to bed. Later.
Best wishes for your successful arising!
The cheesecake story provided much enjoyment at dinner last night with the family. :)
More than possible.
I have wide reaching influence.
You can avoid swallowing foreign objects by NEVER putting anything in your mouth that isn’t edible. Yesssirrreeeee
My three-year-old is happy to be of service. What good’s your religion, after all, if you can’t even get a dessert?
All the cheesecake and a whole Key Lime pie (from the freezer case at Walmart, being as it’s a down economy) are gone now, but we still have ice cream.
When I'm thanking the Lord for all of the blessings He gives me, I include Hershey's chocolate syrup. Oh ... my ... goodness. If there's such a thing as getting drunk on chocolate milk, I've done it! I've been 10 times the legal limit too many times to count. If Obama wins re-election, they'll find me passed out in the bathtub with 50 empty bottles of Hershey's chocolate syrup. ;0
Chocolate milk ... nose ... keyboard.
Ooooh, I haven’t had Hershey’s syrup in so long ... does it still come in those tins that you poke a hole in the top with the pointy-thing end of a beer-bottle opener?
TTIWWXR
Yes, ma’am. It surely does. But ... I buy it in industrial size plastic jugs. Heh.
My name is BuckeyeTexan and I’m a Hershey’s chocaholic.
So now I’ll share a funny story with you ...
My 11-year-old son saw “the puberty film” this past year in 5th grade. The other night, he had the sudden realization that his parents had had ... SEX! He sat down next to me and asked, “Mom, how many times have you and Dad had, um, sex?”
Now, I’ve been married 20 years ...
Not wanting to discuss my sex life with him, I said, “Well, son, at least twice because we have you and your sister.”
He thought on that a minute and said, “No, it was three times because you had that one miscarriage.”
I said, “Yes, you’re correct. It was at least three times.”
Satisfied with my answer, he got up and walked away. Then he turned around and looked at me and said, “Oh, G-d. Please tell me it wasn’t FOUR times!!!”
Heh, heh.
LOL! I remember when I explained the facts of life to Anoreth ... she was grossed out, and we mostly talked about horses rather than people, since she was familiar with (ahem) activities around the stable. It’s past time to have this talk with Elen and Sally, since I can’t make it clear, otherwise, why they shouldn’t dress like whores.
There are so many complications, though ... why did the female chameleon lay eggs, even though we didn’t have a male, but the female dragon doesn’t lay eggs? And what does it mean that the male cat is “neutered”? I don’t want the boys getting obsessed about losing theirs ...
How have the evening light shows been this year?
