Big City, Bright Lights. Big Colons



Today seems to be the day of toilet humor. I came upon this beauty on an ad blog.I'm usually a fan of ambient media but when it goes wrong it goes really wrong. The prevent cancer society recently put up this inflatable colon in time square, visitors can walk through the colon, and discover more about the disease. Is it me, or is this whole display a little too close for comfort.

  2. I remember that!! I didn't go in, but I really, really wish I had. Bring back the giant colon and the free Charmin crappers, Times Square!

  3. Yes... this really is quite a "visual" preventative method... I hope they don't do the same thing for pap smears... Maybe I can tell my patients who need colonoscopies to go to Times Square now...

    I didn't know you had a blog -- looks very good.
