Especially for you, Pat.

When do you need it done? I'm too burned out on editing to do it tonight.

I wanted to get one of my co-workers the the "Tooter Trapper" mentioned in the article, but since a google search for "Tooter Trapper" only turns up the Salon article, I'm at a bit of a loss as to where to find it. Anybody have any suggestions?

You know, I think I remember reading somewhere that it is an Islamic tradition, or hadith, that God doesn't hear the prayers of a person who breaks wind during them.
