So many "up-the-nose" stories.

When we heard about the 18 month old little boy in the office beside us (his mother works there, not him) put a rock up his nose, the stories began.

They took the little boy to a local hospital. That doctor wanted to operate!! Put him under local!! The mother and grandmother said, "No way! Jose!" So they took him to Children's Hospital in Dallas. They advised to wait a day then bring him back. They couldn't see anything yet.

Well, we all gathered around to get his update and that's when the stories began. One of the girls in our office told us about one of her little sisters put a whole bunch of toilet paper up her nose. No one knew it was there until she sneezed and a bunch of white stuff came out. Too funny!

Then another one from the office next door (where this new case of up-the-nose came from) said her younger brother put a bean up his nose. No one knew about it until it sprouted. What???

I laughed way hard. If she was the kind of person that embellishes stories, I wouldn't have believed her. Since she isn't, I believe. I then told my boss that I was going to try it to see if it could really happen. Warm. Moist. Hmmmm. I'll let you know when it sprouts.

Surely there's a "you must be a red-neck" joke in that one!!
