      E. Coli can be a tremendous tool in the quest to lose unwanted weight!

      Buuttttt, I think I'll pass! (OK, so it ain't that funny if you got it!)

      Please be careful. This particular forum is probably responsible for consuming massive quantities of lettuce, so if you have lettuce on the menu and you live in this area, if possible, make other plans until you checked out your sources.

        I got it, AND I thought it was funny. But then again, I find bathroom humor fun.

        Gah! I've outed myself.
