On "Tanked,"

[Wilson Gray]

a prime-time Animal Planet program, a woman laughingly says,

"Leave it to *my* brother to _fart_ and depart!"


Farting is a kind of hobby for Peter Griffin, The Family Guy of
animated-cartoon fame, but this is the ftrst time that I've *noticed*
anyone saying "fart" for real. Until I read that thread the other day,
I didn't know that it was of interest, if someone said "fart" on the
tube.

All say, "How hard it is that we have to die!"---a strange complaint
to come from the mouths of people who have had to live.
