So I had a rough shift at work last night. I'm tired and hungry. I come home and fire up the computer. Clean up some business online and head on over to Arfcom.

Surfing the site, munching on various leftovers from my fridge. I grab a bag of dried plums, hey, I like 'em.

Arfcom is always a huge source of entertainment for me. I am really engrossed in some thread when I realize that I have just eaten about a pound of the dried plums.

Dried plums = prunes.

Am I going to die?

No, but don't worry if you're out on the back porch and you get the urge. If you have a clear shot to the terlet, just aim thru the screen door. You'll be fine.

Don't worry prunes never work, unless your caught in a traffic jam on your local freeway.

They are like any other fruit. They got as much nutrients as the fresh fruit but without the water. They're good for you, at least a lot better than chips.

Yeah, but a pound of dried plums is like two dozen real prunes!

I might get a prolapse!

The Calif plum growers assoc has got approval for them to call prunes, dried plums.

Actally, if you really need to do a BM, drink coffee like Starbucks that contain more than the usual amount of caffience, caffiene can cause sphinter muscle reactions.

Wet prunes or prune juice work in 30-60 mins. Dried prunes are much less effective.
