....and all this time I've been hawking lougies.... What a waste of mucous!
Hey this should amuse you... it's January in Yellowknife, 42c below and I'm
crossing Franklin Ave. This cab with an Arab drives up and as I'm engaged
and crossing in front of his cab... he lays on the horn several times!! So
I felt this real greener forming up and coughed it up from deep down... you
know the kind.. thick and with substance.... well Cappy I turned .. looked
at the cab and hawked up a beauty that smacked thick and wide on the
driver's side. He turned on the wipers to clrean it off and all it did was
spread the gob, so as to completly obliterate his view.... then the cold
went into effect... it froze it solid. The passenger started laughing and I
walked on by. When I looked back a block away.... he was trying to remove
it with the ice scraper!

Top doc backs picking your nose and eating it
Picking your nose and eating it is one of the best ways to stay healthy,
according to a top Austrian doctor.
Innsbruck-based lung specialist Prof Dr Friedrich Birching said people who
pick their noses with their fingers were healthy, happier and probably
better in tune with their bodies.
He says society should adopt a new approach to nose-picking and encourage
children to take it up.
Dr Birching said: "With the finger you can get to places you just can't
reach with a handkerchief, keeping your nose far cleaner.
"And eating the dry remains of what you pull out is a great way of
strengthening the body's immune system.
"Medically it makes great sense and is a perfectly natural thing to do. In
terms of the immune system the nose is a filter in which a great deal of
bacteria are collected, and when this mixture arrives in the intestines it
works just like a medicine.
"Modern medicine is constantly trying to do the same thing through far
more complicated methods, people who pick their nose and eat it get a
natural boost to their immune system for free."
He pointed out that children happily pick their noses, yet by the time
they have become adults they have stopped under pressure from a society
that has branded it disgusting and anti social.
He said: "I would recommend a new approach where children are encouraged
to pick their nose. It is a completely natural response and medically a
good idea as well."
And he pointed out that if anyone was really worried about what their
neighbour was thinking, they could still enjoy picking their nose in
private if they still wanted to get the benefits it offered.
