November 8, 2006: Snake through the nose guy

I still think they are cool, even if I've seen the trick a few times before.

Makes you wonder how the first person to do this got the idea. I assume it's not too hard, you just stick the head in, and let the snake do the work.

What a slacker. A real snake through the nose dedicant would use an Anaconda.

Once, years ago, I was being admitted to the hospital due to a Crohn's disease blockage. The doctor was trying to shove a hose up my nose to go down my throat. There's probably a scientific name for such a thing, but I don't know it.

Anyway, he was doing a really bad job of it, so I had him hand me the stick he was shoving with and poked it in myself.

I'm guessing it can't be any harder than that was.
