>     EEG ... (whatever that is!) 

    e-lectro-e-ncephalo-g-raph is a procedure that can be performed only
    by direct descendants of the original spanish inquisitors
    (torturers). an assistant - usually a torturer wannabe - glues
    (truthfully, it's just warm wax - unless you p.o. the assistant &
    then it's a little too warm wax) little wires all over your head but
    mostly in spots where it causes the most discomfort and the hair has
    to be 'trimmed' to remove. after the wires are all connected - about
    2 days - you're put into a small closet with a narrow bed, a lumpy
    pillow, and a big window. then the light is turned off and you're
    told to go to sleep. they expect you to fall asleep immediately
    knowing that someone is sitting on the other side of the window
    monitoring the machinery - someone who will not get involved when
    your claustrophobia advances beyond the screaming into the lumpy
    pillow and reaches the stage where you are clinging to the big
    window like a garfield toy on a car window. did i mention that the
    uniform de jour you wear for this routine is one of those hospital
    'johnnies' borrowed from the pediatric floor? an eeg is something
    you usually have to go through to check your brain pattern after you
    flat line in the o.r. - frankly i figured those little wires were
    all programmed to subliminally transmit all night "it was not the
    hospital's fault. it was not ..." anyway, my findings revealed that
    either the 2 sides of my brain had had a tremendous battle that
    wound up in detente, or i had never had a dominant side
    (translation: neither side gave enough of a hoot to want to control
    the other one) which backed up the sat, et al tests, that determined
    i would probably become a structural engineer working with mother
    theresa. or making jewelry. whichever was the more painful and
    costly. they were right. ive people, 'art' called me & asked if
    everyone is skinny dipping yet!
