Golden Balls

Been having a excellent time with the Sprout/OC connection. The weekend included a long overdue trip for some Pachinko action. Needless to say, after 20 minutes playing with the little golden balls I was none the wiser and slightly poorer - oh what fun!!

With the vague possibility of a trip abroad this winter break I have taken note of the following story and will be careful in the future:

"Flatulence leads US jet to divert"

"An American Airlines plane made an emergency landing in Nashville after passengers reported the smell of sulphur from burning matches.

The matches were found on the seat of a woman who had attempted to conceal the odour of flatulence with the matches, Nashville airport authorities said."
