What trash fence circuit? Details please!

Sometimes I'm confused by what I think is really obvious. But what I think is really obvious obviously isn't obvious.

Well, you need not wonder any longer! Asparagus contains a sulfur-containing compound identified by scientists as methyl mercaptan, which is a colorless gas. Methyl mercaptan is also found in blood, feces, garlic, eggs, cheese and even skunk secretions. In fact, methyl mercaptan is one of the major contributors to bad breath and flatulence odors. In addition, another ingredient found in asparagus is asparagine, it is present in foods like dairy products, seafood, poultry, fish and nuts and this amino acid is known to have a distinctive smell when heated. To metabolize both methyl mercaptan and asparagine, the digestive track must break these compounds down and it is this breakdown that's responsible for your urine's strange smell.

Oh. Nah. That's pretymuch the whole pissing match. But untill my bio-chem courses I always thought it was the copious amounts of garlic laced holindase sauce I slather on them. Naja!

To answere the question that got run over at the top of the page. Yes we will experiance 22min 34.3sec of winter on January 19th sometime round noon.

TpbM has experienced that odd where do I know you from feeling when they see thier children.

Man I love potatoes...and I did celebrate having regular normal plain ol delicious mashed potatoes for Christmas for the first time since I started dating my BF. :D

Didn't realize how much I missed them until I had them!

TPBM loves terrible films because of all the incredibly silliness of it all.

I actually gave up films because my great love is reading and I'm gonna be dead in 30 or 40 years. No time to waste...
