allthumbs Posted April 10, 2002 Share Posted April 10, 2002 According to the Bend Bulletin newspaper in Oregon, Ray recently had some of his nonvital organs removed along with a reduction of his bone mass to increase his overall daily hiking mileage. Apparently Mr. Jardine reduced his pack weight to the lightest achieved and is now focusing on the internal body and how to efficiently maximize trail performance. His next visit to the surgeon will consist of the doctor sewing a large skin pouch on Ray's abdomen, much like a kangaroo. "This pouch will store all of my gear", reports Jardine.

Alpine_Tom Posted April 10, 2002 Share Posted April 10, 2002 You don't really NEED the appendix, or gall bladder. Certainly two kidneys are redundant; you could remove one and have it stored in case you need it later. Look at the performance improvement Lance Armstrong got from removing superfluous body parts!
