    LOL. Yes, this thread brings back memories.

    It was about 25 years ago that one of the elders was conducting a part. I can't remember what meeting, but it was either the WT study or the Service Meeting. The material contained the word "flatulance", and I chuckled, figuring that they would scrupulously avoid that subject altogether.

    To my astonishment, he looked at the audience and asked "What does 'flatulance' mean?" There was a dead silence, and when no one volunteered, I shrugged and figured what the heck, why not. So I raised my hand and answered, "That's a fart."

    The conductor about fell off the platform.

    OK, OK. I'll admit it I was the culprit. I too bent down to pick my songbook up off the floor. It was one of the totally unsuspected surprises. Fortunately there was a young boy sitting next to me who was well known for his uncontrolled flatulence. All I did was give him a dirty look! To this day, he has never forgotten it. The more he denied it the more everyone thought it was him.
    It was a close shave for me. But through the disgrace of another I saved face.

    I am howling right now! That is so frickin funny. Although we thought it was gross at the time, looking back, that was probably the highlight of our Watchtower career.

    Once when I was about 13 years old I was handling the microphone during the service meeting. During a question and answer talk I was standing at the back of the hall with the microphone. I suddenly got an unbelievably sharp pain in my abdomen which turned out to be gas. At the very same moment as the pain, the brother on the platform called on someone in the front row to answer. Well you can guess what happened next - I had to walk the entire length of the hall with my cheeks pinched together tighter than a gnat's ass, even still there were some audible rumblings a few times while I was mid stride.
    To make maters worse, there I was standing now at the front of the hall in my shame, while the person I was holding the mic for gave what seemed to be the longest comment ever!

    I could never be quite sure if the smells at the Kingdom Hall were farts, body odor or bad breath.
