Woke up this morning and it was rank. What causes that smell?

IBTZ.

[Echo Talon]

I like cheese

[FReepaholic]

I'd blame Bush, if I were you.

[theDentist]

Oh, this is too easy.

[B Knotts]

It's absorbing the odor from all the cheese.

[TheConservator]

Ha ha, IBTZ!

[Constitution Day]

Michael Schiavo's fault, undoubtedly.

[frogjerk]

Breaking News?

[Ditter]

They always smell like vomit, I won't eat them.

[Rutles4Ever]

Why is this not in breaking news?

[wolfpat]

Check the mousetrap under the sink.

[Moonman62]

Papaya smells like vomit even at its best.

[RockinRight]

You could try showering...

[Echo Talon]

[Sax]

Sprinkle with a vinegar and water dressing. Bon Apetite.

[ClearCase_guy]

It's not your papaya -- and it's nacho cheese, either!

[billorites]

My python boot was too tight
I couldn't get it off last night
A week went by
And now it's July

[dynachrome]

Slow day at DU?

Don't stick in in places it don't belong.

[george wythe]

You're supposed to wash it and rinse it

[mewzilla]

I don't know, but according to this link:

Ripe or rotting papaya is also effective for treating jellyfish and coral stings.

:)

[commish]

My papaya said to always wipe and then it won't stink.

I am thinking it is a shameless vanity, Rebelbase has been a member since 2000. That is a long time for a subversive troll? I am going to check back on this thread. It should be interesting. :o)

Where exactly have you been keeping this "papaya"?

[Zavien Doombringer]

Dude... What happened? Did someone hijack your handle or what... This isn't like you!

[Hatteras]

I hear your gramma's a little on the sour side also.

[jaydubya2]

Frank was the best!

[Redcloak]

The Papaya is not a patient fruit. You should have consumed the tropical delectable yesterday.

[eyespysomething]

Well, it's this chemical reaction that starts the moment it is pulled from the ground. If you save it, keep an eye out for the eyes, ha ha! Now, I like 'em scrubbed, pricked, wrapped in foil and baked for about an hour at 400 degrees (for a softer skin), but hubby likes 'em pricked with a fork, the ends trimmed slightly and baked unwrapped for a crispier skin. The usual way to eat potatoes is to cut them....what? You said papaya? Never mind.

Woman Shows Off Five-Pound Monster Mango

By KARIN STANTON Tue Mar 14, 9:47 PM ET

KAILUA-KONA, Hawaii - When Colleen Porter took her mango to the local grocer, it wasn't to sell it, but to weigh it and show it off. Colleen Porter, already a state mango record holder, has been confirmed by the Guinness Book of World Records as growing the world's heaviest mango — 5 pounds, 7 ounces. The monster mango appears to be close to the size of a human head.

Porter, 47, a skin care specialist at Kona Center of Facial Surgery, has a certificate from Guinness to prove the record. She's framed it — in mango wood, of course.

Virginia Easton-Smith, West Hawaii agricultural extension agent for the University of Hawaii, who helped with the submission to Guinness, confirms the record. The fruit had to be weighed and documented two separate times by three people. Independent witnesses verified six weighings.

Porter, who tends a small avocado and mango orchard, also stopped by several local grocery stores to check out her mango on their scales. The record-breaking fruit is a Keitt mango, which typically reach two to three pounds.

"All the people I showed it to at Safeway and Sack 'n' Save were just amazed," she said.

Easton-Smith said the Big Island already is noted for producing the world's biggest jackfruit, but having the world's most massive mango is something special.

"We think it's very cool," she said.

Porter said she has been told a photograph of her mango is a "strong contender" to be included in Guinness's next edition, which goes on sale Jan. 1, 2007. The mango record is not found on the Guinness Web site, which includes only a selection of its 40,000 records.

The mango was picked in mid-October and still sits in Porter's refrigerator.

"We're turning it into a piece of art," she said.

Her husband, Scott, has made a mold from the mango and plans to create a sculpture to be painted by her daughter, Megan, an art major in Santa Barbara, Calif.

Porter, who has moved to a new home in Captain Cook, says she almost gave up her orchard.

"One day, I just didn't know if I wanted to keep it up," she said. "I looked up to the sky for some kind of answer and that's when I first saw it."

The granddaughter of farmers, Porter covered the fruit with a bag to prevent insects, birds and rodents gnawing on it and for two months kept vigil.

One day it just looked ready.

"I climbed the ladder and when I touched it, it fell right into my hands," Porter said.

IBTZ. Can't believe your home page is still up. For that matter I can't beleive or even understand what your HP is about.
Maybe it is the cause of the stink.
