Guts (updated to include correct link to "Guts")

Sometimes fiction does really imitate life. Sometimes that's really sad.

As soon as I read, "A 6-year-old girl who sat over an open drain hole in a wading pool had part of her intestinal tract torn out by the drain's powerful suction, her family said.," my file-o-fax of literature memories started flipping and landed on Chuck Palahniuk's short story "Guts."

I guess there is no such thing as pure imagination.
