Part VII (rectal pagers) was added after it appeared in my Yahoo newspage. This continues to be one of the most viewed group of radiographs that I've posted!

Good overview. I really liked him watching him on TV during my school at LSU. He is one great inspirator for all those people who believe in themselves and who put passion in whatever they do. His really did that. Of course, all great people die young.

Great review of Stingray Medicine Al.
After hearing of the news of his death I was left with the feeling that control is an illusion and randomly horrible things happen with no predictability whatsoever.

I went snorkelling with Rays at Stingray City off Cayman a few years back. Beautiful creatures - I can certainly recommend that dive, but you need to be a strong swimmer.

We did see one idiot holding onto a Stingray, with it attempting to hit the diver with its barb. Sad that none of the crew intervened and had this guy off the dive.

This really is a defensive action on the part of the Stringray. Should we be that surprised that Steve Irwin got stung, considering his normal approach to wildlife. Of course, an attacking croc, snake or stingray makes good wildlife TV - with all the risk that go with it. Still, wildlife conservation has lost an active sponsor and generous champion.

Ok, Ok- you guys! These are best that Google could offer! The story was real, the xrays was for pictoral purposes.

Anyhow, a follow-up:

* Sadly, the atypical pneumonia guy died. I will miss him- he was a good friend. His 78 year old body just didn't take too well to having h/o pulmonary emboli, heart disease, diabetes, and other MMP's (multiple medical problems).
* The RIGHT sided effusion lady is doing well as long as she remains on high dose steroids. I took a total of 3.5 liters of fluid over 2 thoracentesis procedures. She's currently getting radiation therapy to control some bone mets of the spine and pelvis.
