We have woke up laughing so hard! I hope we never grow "too old" to find it humorous!:D We are just trying to keep things interesting!:D
  • Oh my gosh Emmett!!! That is one of the funniest stories I've heard in a long time! I HATE cigarette smoke and would love to have seen (or heard;) ) you do that! We need to call you the nickname I call my husband when he is able to use his "gift" at any given moment....."G.O.D."- Gas On Demand!:D

  • Originally posted by Scansy OK, for funny stories - has anyone "made bubbles" while swimming? Are you kidding? Anyone who claims they haven't is lying! In my experience people who swim a lot usually don't need to worry much about constipation :)

    I'm glad y'all liked my Smokin' da Pool Smoker story. My boys are at the age where farts and fart jokes are, in their minds, a top-class act - so whenever we go camping or are otherwise in a situation where jokes and/or storytelling are called for, its at the top of the list of stories they beg me to tell. The fact that it reinforces a negative image of smoking doesn't hurt a bit, either. I was hesitant to post it here for fear it would not be well received in a more adult environment. It just goes to show that Masters swimming can keep you young!

    Emmet, As a 34 year old "boy", let me tell you that farts are not "a top-class act" anymore. But they still make me giggle with my boys too (ages 3 & 11). Nothing bonds the boys of the house better! My wife keeps threatening to move out.... Being the only girl in the house, you would think she would start to understand? Scansy

Speaking of bubbles while swimming, that reminds me of a song in the 60's (?), Tiny Bubbles. Bubbles while swimming can inflate your suit if it's worn and losing its shape. :D Know what I mean? Shannon, consider yourself reminded. And Matt S. in a moustache ... can anyone picture that?

    Oh dear - you reminded me of your funny post, so I had to go back and reread it. I laughed harder this time than I did when you first posted it (and I didn't think that was possible). Oh my aching stomach. :D

    Here's an idea. My secretary, the other day, brought in the office a remote-controlled electronic whoopie cushion. You place the circular speaker device any where you like e.g., under a chair and you can activate it with a remote control. Pretty cool "guy" gift. I then had a terrible thought. As many of y'all know, I am a part-time Church organist and I am positioned in the back of the church. I thought about getting 1/2 dozen or so of these electronic marvels and placing them under the pews in Church in strategic positions. I could activate them by remote control from the organ console. It could provide some real entertainment during a crowded Church service. Reminds me, Confucious says, "He who flatulates in Church ... sits in his own pew." Jean I figured you'd like my idea. Paul, understand what you mean being a "big kid." My wife constantly will ask me if I will ever "grow up?" Our clerical staff in my office will always tell me that "I am not right." So, what else is new? Mark PS Comedian George Carlin did a whole bit on tooting on one of his albums. Think I'll get it out and listen to it again. It's hilarious. Women should never complain about what we guys do ... they rip off some that will make one's eye water.

    The problem with women farting is that they often try to do it surreptitiously - which means those on the receiving end have no warning. That's positively evil. Did you know that Klingons have humor in their culture? You wouldn't know it from their outward demeanor. But no self-respecting Klingon comedian can resist the impulse to fart in an air-lock.
