ucant with the funnay. I doubt you'll see it called that in Gray's!

It's either the jejunum or the duodenum, I can't remember. I think the duodenum is the top portion of the SI, so I'll go with jejunum.

Posted: Wed Jul 25, 2007 2:43 pm

And jejunum would be correct.

BTW, the duodenum is what connects the stomach to the small instestine.





BSmack with the answer at the same time, but burned by the server. That's gotta sting. :D

Props to you for putting in some anatomy questions this week. Shit, the only sports trivia I could answer would be hockey, but I won't hold my breath on seeing any of those questions.

Shit. I thought it was PSU. Figured Miami was a good pick since they won a good deal in the late 80's.

Shane Conlan and company clowned Vinnie Testaverde in the Fiesta Bowl that year. Remember when Jimmy Johnson was known as a coach who "couldn't win the big one"? Sorry to see that label get removed.
