| Name – Is this a journal or an airport? |  |
) "click to enlarge") Front cover – Urgh. Help. It's horrible. I don't even know what it is but it looks seriously nasty and disease-ridden. |

| Off-the-wallness – They have a podcast. Seriously. A podcast all about kidneys. You can listen to it here (click me), but I wouldn't bother. |  |
| Usefulness – I know I've got a spare one, but in the interests of keeping my pee pure, I'm fully behind the researchers contributing to Kidney International. | |

| Overall - This is the last call for passenger U. Rin on Urethra flight 1P to Grand Basin Central. |  |
