    Jeez....don't you guys know how to breath through your mouth? I have certainly perfected that technique when I'm taking the dirty diaper bag out to the trash!

    This thread is too funny!! Steve was on a roll! My skimmer scent changed quite a bit when I switched to homemade mush, there's now a hint of sushi roll and oddly enough, always a perfumey smell...huh...

    fair enough

    I always ask them to give me the recipe and list the ingredients, in case I need to relay it to a doctor later
