I'm not so much poking fun of your spelling as commenting on the
visualization I get when I read yours below....

Jim, you DO mean BOWL don't you? cause you can't REALLY chose your
bowel....... I mean you have two and what you eat visits both......

Your right Earl, what visits one does usually visit the other. Spell check let me down again. Dolita ,being the great friend that she is, was the frist to point this out and I'm sure there was a smile on her face and maybe a little snicker too.
Just another adventure in being dyslexic. Hope what I was thinking got pass ( pun intended ) the bad spelling.
