Happiness is a Dry Fart

Post by Gabes-Apg »

in line with our motto/tag line i am across a book called

Did someone step on a duck? A natural history of the Fart


The book is classed as " impolite, aromatic and incredibly erudite flatuence compendium -
something that us pp people can appreciate! >

As i read it, i will post some threads with summaries from the book.

from the back cover... (which was what got me hooked to buy the book)

- A harrowing account of Apollo Astronauts getting inner space gas from hydrogen bubbles in their drinking water on their way to the moon

- The other Tiger Woods scandal, this one involving a mysterious cheek-squeak recorded while Tiger sized up an approach shot at the 2009 Buick Open
(Gabes edit -dont you love the term cheek squeak)

I suppose we would have to classify that as "light" reading.

It is suspected that some of the hardest material known to science can be found in the skulls of GI specialists who insist that diet has nothing to do with the treatment of microscopic colitis.

Gabes, this is priceless!

I will be looking forward to more fart enlightenment! LOL!

The astronaut story reminds me of a lady with MC I met online prior to this Board. She is a snorkeler/scuba diver who photographs undersea life around the world. She once had a major D attack while underwater in her wet suit. She said it was soooo embarrassing when she had to peel off her wetsuit on the boat.

Hugs,

Once, a very long time ago I had toilet paper that defined types of farts on each square. It was not unusual to hear guests roaring with laughter, accompanied by loud farts from the loo, when they had occasion to visit it.
I wish I could find that stuff again.

Yeah, it was something like that, but each sheet had a different type of fart on it. Really funny. Given my brain fog I can't remember even one!
