Sbd Gift

When I let one loose in the elevator, so silent was it that nobody knew among all the folks stuck on that lift from whose bottom that humdinger flew. Folks looked at their feet; no one's eyes did they meet. With some others, I got off the lift although my floor I had not even reached! Those still going up were left with my SBD gift.

Leaving the scene of the crime is quite simply criminal, Andrea. I shall forgive you though, seeing as you just reminded me of the word ‘humdinger’. Gotta use it ASAP! Congrats on your fun win. Terry

Next time I am using the stairs, a fart in the elevator is to much to bear . . . ; )

You may well be SBD Andrea but your not evil, for a real assassin would stay on the elevator and take pleasure in their unpleasant work, that was so sneaky and hilarious purposely getting off on the wrong floor, great work, all the best in contest, cheers David

a secret I reveal here now. my farts do not smell (hardly ever) but as I have aged, I cannot keep them in like when I was young, so I will be teaching class and trying SO hard not to pass gas and then it just goes a tiny TOOT and everyone hears it. SO embarrassing for me. I really hate this new phase of my life.

Good one. Is that how you get out of it? Getting out of the elevator with the crowd and leave the smell and the rest thinking, who had done it?? ... LOL
