Now initially you might think you don't need or even want to know about
butyrate (ˈbjuːtɪˌreɪt) noun,
any salt or ester of butyric acid, containing the monovalent group C3H7COO- or ion C3H7COO–, and when you then bumped into this, having first found out it is in butter, you might well panic:

But then you would realize that lately it has had a great rise in reputation and helps maintain your biodome and aids in the production of key neurotransmitters that help both our gut and our brains to work. Apparently we make it when bacteria in our bellies ferment high fibre carbohydrates, but it is also, and here is the punchline, found in butter! The highest food source for it. I am relieved, and think I will just butter up everything!
At least these verbose scientist think so:

So I’m guessing from the comments about not liking books with too many characters that if the next chapter began something like:
Estelle put down the trashy novel she had just begun, and turned to Eliot to ask if he was really intent on going to the opera despite the storm …
i was trying to find some excerpts from HST’s work, he could wander completely off topic and the side ramble was usually as interesting as the original thought. certain things come to mind, i’ll look around. are you making this up as you go?
there are a few chapters in Genesis that introduce generation upon generation of new characters, and still the book is called the “Good Book”, and remains the most popular literary work in the world. so make sure to sample a much larger universe of opinion than just your closest and most loyal readers. 🙂
remember this one 44?
speaking of 44’s. i think Hunter was sporting a 44. much more impressive than Elvis’s pea shooter.
Mr. Green has gone AWOL. 🙁
OK, I didn’t actually watch 44’s post, but the still picture reminded me of the old bit from “The Man Show”. I used to describe it to my wife as “Simple, yet satisfying.”
i’m not impressed EO. none of them are even skilled enough to do a flip. if i’m wrong it’s because i gave up after one minute. i am a product of fast food, and the 30 second sound bite, or is it byte.
i was trying to remember a short story that he wrote, it started off about local politics but he interjected something about trapping a critter that was giving him grief, it was hilarious. i have the book here somewhere, just not sure which one it was in, it was after “the great shark hunt”, i know that much. i will now go crazy until i find it.
took me a minute to figure out the Mr Green comment, i thought you meant in your life, i’m only allowed to smell him these days. now i see that he has left the site, maybe xty unplugged him (yikes) or maybe he’s part of the plot, or maybe she’s harshing your buzz (she not feeling well), or maybe he lost his job, or maybe……
EO, you just made my iu list.
Mr Green has apparently failed the drug test and said some regretful things in the past. Mr Green is currently in Rehab.
iu? WTF? did ya mean iggy? …
( Herr Grün)
(ignore user, from the swamp), i was just f’ing with him, and hope he’s not feeling grumpy. the Mr Green situation bothers me, he is an essential component of the site. i’m not familiar with the origin of the Herr Grun reference…fill me in.
Ha!
(you are right, all the emotes are gone!)
xty probably has to reload something 😮
Smile: Our New Emoticons Have Arrived
I don’t see Herr Grun on the list. Does anybody know the keystrokes for it? Maybe it still works.
Here you go
colon mrgreen colon
Herr Grun is cuz DP talks kraut when he’s had a couple :/
i am forever in your debt EO! wait, what’s a colon again? : mrgreen :
well, it’s obvious that didn’t work.
🙄
this is my fave
colon roll colon
take out those spaces
I have a feeling that several of us are blogging while impaired at the moment
🙄

oops nope

colonshockcolon 😯
that’s all i need
😎
😳 i stand to be corrected.
not me, i could be a designated driver or even drive a school bus, maybe even the space shuttle. let me get this straight: does Herr Grun=Mr Green, or booze, or both, or is it Woodpeckers generic catch all word, like forgetaboutit or something?
massive thread kill
sorry
time for “deadliest catch” anyway…
Herr Grun means Mr. Green in German. 🙄 🙂
OK thanks, did you just hit me with a colon roll?
you had me on iu, lol
first guy i ever met who didn’t appreciate “girls jumping on trampolines” !!
oh, wait, that was DP. pardon moi
no, maybe both. OK, not every post is a winner. I accept the verdict of the jury…
Herr Grun don’t need no stinkin’ umlauts.
now i’m wondering if xty has gotten a big head, based on the success of the novel and all the feedback comments, scored a lucrative advance and left the site in the dust, took the Mr Green emoticon and said “fuck it”.
i don’t know why, but posts always run over each other here. it would make more sense if everything would land in order. but don’t get me wrong Xty. i’m pretty sure it’s my problem. the delay comes from my end. the feds have been watching me for a long time.
No youtube, but here’s the tune for you, DP.
Who’s Watching the Man
:fuckit:
It was worth a shot
only a few songs short of 100. they will never catch me EO. eat dust, slime bags.
