My fault entirely, I'm sure.

"Hey watch this"

Why is it always a man? I've seen a dozen guys light their farts but never a woman.

Whether it's lighting your farts or writing an opera that endures for a 1000 years, it's just most likely a man.

Yes, whenever I read a story like this, I remember the incident referenced above by bwteim. It only takes a few drops of blood to make the toilet bowl look like a charnal house. It must have been a real shock to see 16 to 20 feet of intestinal tissue in the crapper as well.

If you don't know what you are doing it could blow your head off.

No, you'll blow your guts out.

I've read that all the world's hot peppers have their origins in the Caribbean.

Years ago, when I was in a summer camp in the Dominican Republic, some kids in a "let's have fun with the stupid American" moment gave me a little wild pepper about 1/2 long to eat. I knew exactly what it was (it was named after the Caribe Indians who were supposed to have been particularly fierce). I just kept it under my tongue, pretending to chew and swallow it. When the kids looked puzzled and disappointed, I asked innocently, "Yes, what about it?" I suggested that they try the pepper. The ring-leader picked another off the bush and just bit it and his lips swelled up almost immediately. Then I showed them that I had merely kept it under my tongue.
