First, he gets to preview various animation themes. He chooses his favorite and takes a holographic RFID badge with a Philips ICODE chip. When he goes into the examination room, he waves the badge at the scanning equipment, and the walls and ceiling come to life with animations, accompanied by music and other sounds. It keeps him relaxed and it's a great way to give him instructions. When it's time for him to hold his breath, he sees a cartoon character holding his own breath!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38563</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA['Tis not the eating, nor 'tis not the drinking that is to be blamed, but the excess ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14446]]></link><description><![CDATA['Tis not the eating, nor 'tis not the drinking that is to be blamed, but the excess]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14446</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Please accept my resignation.

Thou, O my Jesus, Thou didst me upon the Cross embrace; For me didst nails and spear endure, and manifold disgrace. Why, then why, O blessed Jesus Christ, should I not love Thee well? Not for the hope of winning heaven, or of escaping hell--  Not with the hope of gaining aught, nor seeking a reward, But as Thyself hast loved me, O ever-loving Lord! E'en then I love Thee and will love, and in Thy praise will sing Solely because Thou art my God and my eternal King.   ... Anonymous Latin Hymn (Edward Caswall, translator)  January 29, 2001   No man desires anything so eagerly as God desires to bring men to the knowledge of Himself. God is always ready, but we are very unready. God is near us, but we are far from Him. God is within, and we are without. God is friendly -- we are estranged.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8382</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No man is ever old enough to know better. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1760]]></link><description><![CDATA[No man is ever old enough to know better.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/1760</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Mary is already a winner, with a free trip to Las Vegas worth a few grand. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38605]]></link><description><![CDATA[Mary is already a winner, with a free trip to Las Vegas worth a few grand.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38605</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There can be no deep disappointment where there is not deep love. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64129]]></link><description><![CDATA[There can be no deep disappointment where there is not deep love.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/64129</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[After the number of the days in which ye searched the land, even forty days, each day for a year, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61996]]></link><description><![CDATA[After the number of the days in which ye searched the land, even forty days, each day for a year, shall ye bear your iniquities, even forty years, and ye shall know my breach of promise.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/61996</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I need to see your meds. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42011]]></link><description><![CDATA[I need to see your meds.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/42011</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There are mystically in our faces certain characters which carry in them the motto of our souls, wherin he that ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43854]]></link><description><![CDATA[There are mystically in our faces certain characters which carry in them the motto of our souls, wherin he that cannot read A, B, C may read our natures.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43854</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Vices of the time; vices of the man. [Lat., Vitia temporis; vitia hominis.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60495]]></link><description><![CDATA[Vices of the time; vices of the man. [Lat., Vitia temporis; vitia hominis.]]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/60495</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We're not even thinking about it right now.
