Deep Thoughts

I often sit and think about things that many people don't, or they do and just don't tell anyone. Have you ever wondered how farts make a noise? Why some are loud, others mere rumblings, and some completely silent? Is there some type of mating call adaptation that triggers the sound, kind of like the grunting of baboons in the wild? An even bigger question surrounding the passing of gas is why does a fart have a different smell than a burp? They both come from the same place so why are they different in quality and texture? Would it be worse if our burps smelled like farts? That would definately leave a bad taste in your mouth. The question is how does the body apply two separate smells to two things leaving the same loading dock?

Another question that is hard to find an answer for is why do guys have nipples? Women have them for feeding children but men have no use for them. We are unable to feed our kids with them. Are the man's breast supposed to be like a pacifier to keep our little ones quiet? The woman's a feeder, the man's a suckling toy? These are questions I would like answers to. If you have an answer please pass it along. I will update the blog with occasional "Deep Thoughts" to keep us on our toes and thinking logical.
