Kangaroo farts linked to lower emissions
An offbeat suggestion that Australians should eat kangaroos instead of cattle and sheep has been given a scientific stamp of approval by the government's top climate change adviser.
The belching and farting of millions of farm animals is a major contributor to Australia's greenhouse gas emissions, Professor Ross Garnaut noted in a major report to the government on global warming.
Kangaroos, on the other hand, emit negligible amounts of methane gas.
If farmers were included in a system requiring industry to buy permits for the gas they produce, the cost of meat would rise and could lead to a change in eating habits, Mr Garnaut said in the 600-page report released today.

Charge dropped against man accused of passing gas
Oh My Lord! Where in the world is America going? This guy arrested for battery on an officer for farting! 'nuff said, here's the story folks...but beware, some graphic smells may come your way!!
A West Virginia man accused of passing gas and fanning it toward a police officer no longer faces a battery charge. The Kanawha County prosecutor's office requested that the charge be dropped against 34-year-old Jose Cruz.
According to a criminal complaint, Cruz passed gas and made a fanning motion toward patrolman T.E. Parsons after being taken to the police station for a breathalyzer test. Cruz denies fanning the gas and says his request to use a restroom when first arriving at the station was denied.
An assistant says Magistrate Jack Pauley signed a motion to dismiss the charge Thursday.
Cruz, who was arrested Tuesday, still faces driving under the influence and other charges. Oh My Lord! Where in the world is America going? This guy arrested for battery on an officer for farting! 'nuff said, here... more -
Mr Methane to blow away audiences
The world's only full-time performing flatulist is promising to "blow away audiences" at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe.
Mr Methane, alias former train driver Paul Oldfield, will reveal his unique skills in a show called An Audience With Mr Methane.
In it, he tells broadcaster Martin Kelner how his 'talent' came to light when he accompanied his sister in yoga practice.
He discovered - to his surprise and delight - that he was able to take in air through the rear, retain it, and then expel it as and when he chose.
At first, it was nothing more than a party trick to entertain fellow railwaymen, but eventually Mr Methane found that by careful control, he could pick out a simple tune.
He gradually expanded his repertoire, which now ranges from Strauss's Blue Danube waltz through to Kylie Minogue's I Should Be So Lucky.
Using audio visual aids, Kelner will tell the Methane story, and may join him on a moving rendition of Da Doo Ron Ron, "performed fore and aft".
Mr Methane will tell how he conquered the Howard Stern show in America, did sell-out tours in Australia, and became a star on Japanese TV.
"He wanted to call it Working My Passage but I persuaded him not to," reveals Kelner. The world's only full-time performing flatulist is promising to "blow away audiences" at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe.... more -

"The World's Longest Fart"
This weeks fart is boasted to be "The World's Longest Fart" and it might be just that. A few squeaks and chirps aside, this is a legitimate thirty-second fart. On a solid football Sunday I've had some five-second farts, but this is just insane. Unless you want to count my death fart from a few months ago that made my friend Brian run onto my front porch and dry heave. This weeks fart is boasted to be "The World's Longest Fart" and it might be just that. A few squeaks and chirps aside, ... more

Kangaroo Farts!
According to scientists, Kangaroo farts are fighting global warming.
Thanks to a special bacteria in their stomachs, kangaroos do not emit harmful methane gas when they let off a stinker.
Here are the facts:
A kangaroo is a marsupial
Tehre are some 63 living species of Kangaroo. Including the Red Kangaroo, the Antilopine Kangaroo, and the Eastern and Western Grey Kangaroo wallabies, tree-kangaroos, wallaroos, pademelons and the Quokka
Kangaroos are endemic to the continent of Australia, are found in Australia and New Guinea.
The kangaroo is an Australian icon: it is featured on the Australian coat of arms on some of its currency and is used by many Australian organisations,
Kangaroos live in groups called mobs.
Young kangaroos sometimes box playfully to pass the time. Adult males box to determine dominance, with the strongest male becoming the head of the mob.
They are not farmed to any extent, but wild kangaroos are shot for meat and fur,
While running at speeds of about 12 mph, these kangaroos are able to reach 35 mph in short bursts.
Kangaroos can be the size of a rat or as tall as a man.
Bucks (male kangaroos) "kickbox" in order to win mates. Two male rivals clasp arms and attempt to kick each other in the belly. They are able to stand on their tail while using both hind legs to kick
A female is called a doe, flyer, jill, or roo;
A male kangaroo is called a buck, boomer, jack, or old man

The western gray kangaroo Macropus fuliginosus buck has been nicknamed "the stinker" because it smells like curry! 

Kangaroos cannot walk backwards!
A mother kangaroo can produce milk of two different types to feed two different babies (joeys) at the same time: a joey that has emerged from the pouch but is still nursing and a newborn!
Females have one baby at a time, which at birth is smaller than a cherry. According to scientists, Kangaroo farts are fighting global warming. ... more -
Woman dismissed for chronic farting
A woman claimed she was fired for farting too much. I'm not kidding. This is a genuine story as reported by the Daily Mirror.
And I quote: "The worker, who cannot be named for legal reasons, says she was taunted by colleagues with cruel jibes about a "terrible smell"."
It's jokes like this that has caused the complainant, who suffers from severe irritable bowel syndrome, to take legal action.
"The woman, from Bradford, claims disability and race discrimination, unfair dismissal and breach of contract."
But her former Nick Cole said "the reasons for her sacking in 2006 were unrelated to her condition." A woman claimed she was fired for farting too much. I'm not kidding. This is a genuine story as reported by the Daily Mirror. ... more -

OAP Told To Fart Outside
A 77-year-old British pensioner has been banned from breaking wind indoors while at his social club. Kirkham Street Sports and Social Club in Paignton, Devon were forced to send a letter to Maurice Fox, pointing out that his excessive flatulence was 'considered disgusting' and would he please 'go outside when required'.
The retired bus driver and self-declared 'old fart' admitted: 'I can be a little loud every now and again' and added that he now needs to leave the club around three times a night.
He conceded: "I think someone has complained about the noise. I am a loud farter, but there is no smell. I do not think it [the letter] is unreasonable, you get ladies in there."

Sexiest farter on the web
Hmmmmmm. "Peteuse, a 31-year-old hottie hailing from San Francisco, is a soon-to-be YouTube celebrity, known for her good looks and funny demeanor as much as her legendary air biscuits. The greatest asset Peteuse has in her favor is a total lack of slutty “porn sexiness” - this is just some radical girl who thinks farts are hilarious." Sexy or not sexy? Hmmmmmm.
