The Poop Report ---
[size=xx-small] Quote:

Way back in the dark ages of the year 2000, PoopReport ran a contest to coin a term describing the incredible feeling of universal oneness that only comes after an especially satisfying poop. ("Poophoria" was the term I best identified with.) I wish we had also named that equally-overwhelming feeling of anticipation when there's a mountain in your gut but you're forced to postpone its release. Because that's how I feel right now. There are still two months until my book is released, but the excitement in my gut is churning like I've been sucking down raw spinach.

Not to worry; I participate only in Fiki Football. I have been known to make a "kick" the long length of my desk; the football equivalent of 200 yards

I recommend a Fiki challenge at the New York Meet as a raffle challenge.
