Why is it when you don't watch TV very much, it never fails that you still always seem to catch the same re-run?

Ha, ha... I never watched before it went to syndication... and found out quickly there are only about 30 episodes. :lmao:

A station here shows two episodes a night... and you really know it's bad when they are the same episode 2x on the same night! :lmao:

It might have been funnier when you had a week in between episodes to forget everything that happened the week before... and wouldn't realize how predictable it really is/was. :cheerleader:

:wavey: And my favorite parts of the article:

"They identified two bacteria, Lactobacillus casei and Lactobacillus plantarum, which can be added to beans so they cause minimal distress to those who eat them"

GREAT! They'll be adding yummy BACTERIA to lessen the gas!

And,

"They fed the beans to rats and then analyzed the rats' droppings to ensure that the beans were digested and kept their nutritional value."

And if I'm not wrong, that's the stuff that the yogurt people are pushing! Maybe you could just cook beans in yogurt... :wavey:

MMMMM, Bacteria! :P

Personally, my favorite bacteria is Saccharomyces cerevisiae, or perhaps Saccharomyces uvarum. Of course, when introduced into an oxygen- and nutrient-rich environment with plenty of dextrose and other fermentable sugars, they actually produce carbon dioxide gas. Oh, yeah, and alcohol.

Cheers!
