      Here's another thing that occurs to me.

      Think of any measurement. How do we know it's accurate? A litre of water weighs a kilogram. So all we need to do to check our scales is stand a litre of one in them and see if they say 1 kg. But how do we know we've got exactly 1 litre? Well, we could weigh it, but how would we be sure the scales were right? Well, we could just weigh a litre of water. But then, how can we be sure that we've got exactly one litre....

        When I met my ex-wife, I (37) was nearly 5 times older than my stepson (8).
        That was 14 years ago, and now I am just over twice his age.
        When I am 100 (yeah, as if), I will only be a bit older than him :) He will be in his 70's :biggrin:

                So does that make you a dizzy blonde Armandii? :biggrin:


                I apologise to any blonde members who may have taken offence, the comment is spoken in jest.

                  I've researched it. This is the best explanation I found.


                  https://uk.answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20061006155426AAghNe9

                  This makes sense to me. There will be less water vapour in a fart than in breath, as some of the water vapour in breath is from mucus produced in the respiratory tract, some from saliva in the mouth, and some is produced when body fat is metabolised to generate extra energy to keep you warm.

                  Much less water is lost at the other end, assuming you are not ill, as the intestines absorb far more than they secrete.

                  Add to this the fact that your fart will usually have to pass through your undies and trousers before escaping to atmosphere, most of the water molecules would be captured by the clothes. We tend not to cover our noses and mouths in the same way we cover our, erm, exhaust ports.

                  So more water from breath and less from flatulence, and more obstruction for the latter, all means a fart is largely an invisible intruder.

                      As you all know I have long straight brown hair, as a teenager I had a perm, my hair totally changed colour! Here's a photo to give you all a giggle!

                          I remember back in the stone ages when curly hair was "out" that I used to try to iron my hair. With the clothes iron...

                            I recall the days when I ironed my hair too :)
                            One day there was a knock on the door, and by the time I had got back to the ironing board, it had gone! :sad:
                            I blame a neighbours pussy :sad:
