Swimmers sweat just as much in the pool as other athletes sweat on land. Watch TV and fish! Oklahoma native Paul Phillips built a fishing hole inside his living room- a trap door opens to the pond! Beer here! Australia's 7 Cent Brewery produces Belly Button beer made with the yeast grown from the brewer's own navel lint!

As much as I’m not alcoholic, navel lint in your drink sounds unappetizing.

Thanks for the warning, If I go to Australia, never getting that beer. I once saw a house, on TV, that had a stream flowing thru the basement so they could fish!

So they harvested yeast from some guy’s belly button. It’s not like the beer they are brewing today is from there anymore. That original yeast is long dead and what they’re using now is just propagation from that original cell…

Ever notice signs in locker rooms urging swimmers to take showers before getting into the pool? To wash off sweat and dead skin cells.Before the health club I attend now was bought by L.A.

In about the 60’s Riverhead LINY had a barber shop within an old warehouse with a privy that sat over the river. By then there was modern plumbing available to use, but that old privy with two holes was neat because you could drop a line in both and fish while you waited to be called ‘Next’ Might still be there?
