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://maxioms.com/maxiom/38563</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Chatham was a game that we easily could have won, but we allowed them to score with one second left. ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/40086]]></link><description><![CDATA[Chatham was a game that we easily could have won, but we allowed them to score with one second left.
