Only if you sneeze, as well. Just think, if you had perfect pitch, **Claptree** , you’d be able to tell us exactly what note you hit. That would be truly awesome. 😃 ---

I don’t recall ever laughing at the mouseover text before opening a thread before. Well played, sir (ma’am). Well played. ETA: Plus, it was your finest hour? Did these emissions last for the full hour? ---

You fart musical tones? Cool!. Maybe you can assign a particular smell to each musical note, and then… er… keep away from me. ---

Ahhh. Reminds me of the time I whistled out of my butt. I was trying to “relieve a little pressure” by letting out a silent one. Instead, I got about a couple of seconds of whoooowhooowhooooowhoooo. No idea what stars had to align to allow my sphicter to whistle, but looks on the faces of the others in the dentist’s waiting room were priceless. ---
