Whew

When I let one loose in the elevator, what my man said shows he’s no odor hater: “My sweet little darlin’, you sure own my heart. Don’t blush, Hon. I know you did not mean to fart. It ain’t awful bad ‘cause it came from sweet YOU. Okay, some fresh air would be wonderful—WHEW! I’ve also been known to cut cheese, my Sweet Pea, and send folks a’runnin’—a wild sight to see! How can we avoid causin’ all those shocked cries? We could skip the beans and the large chili fries. Now pucker up, Sugar Lips--what’s that you say? You ate onion too. Heck! Let’s smooch, come what may!” August 2, 2021 Contest Title: When I Let One Loose in the Elevator Placed 2nd Sponsor: Charles Messina September 27, 2021 Contest: May the Gas Be with You, Farts Part II Placed 5th Sponsor: Chantelle Anne Cooke

Crikey, Janice... baked bean induced aromas at one end and onion breath at the other... a lesser man would have grabbed the TV guide and a beer. you’ve got a Goodun there. Congrats on your win. Terry
