Random thought

WARNING: THE FOLLOWING IS GROSS AND USES THE WORD "COLON"

So I referenced in the blog below a man who sells this Almighty Cleanse on infomercials. It's a seven-day colon cleanse that he says should be done seasonally to rid the body of parasites that cause back aches, foot odor and hemorrhoids, among other ailments.

He claims that he has passed a nest of worms and a six-foot-long rope-like thing, photographs of which he took and airs on television. (I wonder if this guy's married.)

Anyway, here's my question:

Assuming you believed the hype about colon cleaning and that all that "stuff" was in your body...would you really do anything to remove that stuff?

I mean...they haven't killed me yet. I may as well just let them stay up there. I have a sneaking suspicion that most people I know would take a "wait and see" attitude toward potentially unhealthy colon parasites that we'd rather not see.

What does that say about people? I don't know.

(Free advice: Don't type "colon cleanse" into Google images. For real.)
