I was only partially awake during my first colonoscopy, but I did see
a bit of the video.  I was stunned at what I saw.

It was startlingly clean.  And it was -- architectural, with arched
openings angling from chamber into chamber, with barrel-vaulted
ceilings richly marbled with branching networks of abstract red and
blue lines.

It seemed Medieval, Gothic perhaps, but I guess you could say it was
Colon-ial style.
