Guinness World Record Appendix?

News story

I was in the hospital earlier this week getting my appendix removed... and of course it couldn't be a normal appendix... I think the festival is warping my mind and body... the appendix was according to the doctor a pseudopod wrapping around the large intestine measure a foot or more. Can't wait to see the pathologist report next week. I unfortunately will not be running around like a mad man and will have to take it easy... please do not hug me as all sorts of vileness may occur.
