Gettin' windy!

In honor of our incredible Draggontagger, here are a few fun facts about farts...

Farts have less atmospheric gas and more bacterial gas content than burps.
Farts don't disappear - they just migrate back up through the intestines till they can escape.
A normally healthy person produces about 1/2 liter of gas a day, and an average of 14 farts.
People who swallow a lot of air,  for example chewing gum, sucking on hard candy, smoking, eating with mouth open, tend to fart more often.
There have been cases in which intestinal gas with higher than normal oxygen content have EXPLODED during surgery when electric cautery was used by surgeons.

Every kid would love one of these in their stockings this Christmas!
(Yes - I bought one 2 years ago on OLA and it was FUN!)

Just wait till you turn 70 or so and you get up in the middle of the night for a little jaunt to the bathroom....every step you take will be accompanied by a little pfffft! Step..toot..step...toot! I am sure I had a look of sheer horror on my face that first time...I grew up a lady and didn't just pfffft wherever whenever. Just as well get used to it....it's gonna happen.....be forewarned:)

LOL again at SG. I was thinking about sending this to DT until I saw in the chats that "SHE FARTED".
That was the best post to see.
