I'd say the Doctor lost all his good karma points.

He is really angry.

He's gone one kidney and she's got one--sounds like they've already divided their community property!

I can't decide whether this story or the one about the requested bail-out for the porn industry is funnier.

I'd say he's venting his spleen.

Marley is a funny man!

Almost a third of the people answering the poll question think he is right in demanding the kidney back.

I'm very surprised by that.

Sounds about right to me. Bush's approval rating is 27%.

I wonder how many of that third are divorced men?

Nope -- she's probably got 3 kidneys now to his one -- they usually don't remove the native kidneys unless it's necessary.

So they still have 4 kidneys between them, just redistributed!

Prediction on a follow-up story.

She is slipped something in her drink one night, wakes up in a bathtub filled with ice-cubes with a note telling to get to a hospital quickly when she notices a small scar on the lower part of her back.

He should be happy he gets his balls back from the bottom of her purse.

Of course everything that ever happened funny is in a Scrubs episode....

Scrubs is generally more original than that, as the story has been passed around as an urban legend forever, and had been featured in at least a couple of movies way before Scrubs did it.

When Cindy got sick, I looked into kidney transplantation. How it works is, the donor is a healthy shelter cat -- and once the transplant is done, you adopt the donor kitty and give it a wonderful home. So you end up with 2 cats and 4 kidneys -- just redistributed a bit!

Unless there's some valid medical reason to remove the native kidneys, it would simply be unnecessary surgery.

Here's how it looks in a person (I'm not sure how it looks in a cat!)

Something's wrong with that illustration: If the host had only one diseased kidney, s/he would not need a transplant.

Since the article claims that the doc's chances of either getting his kidney or the cash rest somewhere between impossible and completely impossible, maybe he'll settle for visitation?

Monday and Wednesday evenings and every other weekend?

You're right; this one's a little better:

Ha, that's what I was thinking! Somebody used to have a comedy bit about visiting his best friend's kidney, after friend died & kidney was transplanted. "Oh, I'm not visiting YOU......I'm visiting Joe's kidney!" He then proceeds to follow the recipient around making sure he's taking good care of it.
