    Default The wonders of modern medicine

    Seriously, I couldn't make this shit up if I tried...

    "A 55-year-old British man whose bowel was ruptured in a nearly catastrophic traffic accident has been fitted with a bionic sphincter that opens and closes with a remote controller. Ged Galvin had originally endured 13 surgeries in a 13-week hospital stay and had grown frustrated with using a colostomy bag until surgeon Norman Williams of the Royal London Hospital proposed the imaginative operation. Dr. Williams, who was interviewed along with Galvin for a November feature in London's Daily Mail, wrapped a muscle transplanted from Galvin's leg around the sphincter and attached electrodes to tighten or loosen the muscle's grip."

    I mean... who wouldn't want to have a remote-controlled bionic sphincter???

    The remote control to my mom's garage door opener would go off everytime the local police would use a certain frequency. That might be a problem with a remote sphincter.

    That is one remote control you do NOT want to lose!

    And don't set it down next to your TV remote during your next party...
