                 <20>  All farts are divided into two groups:  <20>
                 <20>        1.  Your Farts                    <20>

THE ANTICIPATED FART:  This one warns that it is back there waiting for some
  time before it arrives.  A person who is uneasy for a time in a crowd
  and who later farts at a time when they think no one will notice has
  farted an Anticipated Fart.

THE BACK SEAT FART:  This is a fart that occurs only in automobiles.  It is
  identified chiefly by odor.  The Back Seat Fart can usually be concealed
  by traffic noise as it is an eased-out fart and not very loud.  But its
  odor is foul and will give it away due to the way air moves around in
  a car.  Then someone will say, "Who farted in the back seat?".

THE BARRED OWL FART:  A familiarity with owl calls is helpful in identifying
  this fart.  Almost any morning if you get up just before daybreak you can
  hear one of these birds talking to himself.  It's a sort of a crazy laugh,
  particularly the way it ends.  If you hear a fart that has about eight
  notes in it, ending on a couple of down notes, and it sounds maniacal,
  you have heard the rare Barred Owl Fart.

THE BULLET FART:  Its single and most pronounced diagnostic characteristic
  is its sound.  It sounds like a rifle shot.  The farter can be said to
  have snapped it off.  It can startle spectators and farter alike.
  Fairly common following the eating of the more common fart foods, such
  as beans.

THE COMMAND FART:  This fart differs from the Anticipated Fart in that it
  can be held for long periods of time waiting for the right moment.
  Unlike the  Anticipated Fart, it is intended to be noticed.  Harold
  Tabor recently held a Command Fart for the whole period in history
  class and let it go right at the end when the teacher asked if there
  were any questions.

THE COMMON FART:  This fart needs little description.  It is to the world
  of farts what the house sparrow is to the world of birds.  I can see
  no point in describing this fart any further.

THE CUSHIONED FART:  A concealed fart, sometimes successful.  The farter
  is usually on the fat side, sometimes a girl.  They will squirm and
  push their butt way down into the cushions of a sofa or over-stuffed
  chair and ease out a fart very carefully without moving then or for some
  time after.  Some odor may escape, but usually not much.  Common with
  some people.

THE DUD FART:  The Dud Fart is not really a fart at all.  It's a fart that
  fails.  For this reason it is stricly a group one identification fart,
  because there is no real way you can identify a fart that somebody else
  expected to fart but didn't.  It is the most private of all farts.  In
  most cases the farter usually feels a little disappointed.

THE ECHO FART:  This is a fart that can be wrongly identified.  It is not
  some great loud fart in an empty gym or on the rim of the Grand Canyon.
  The true Echo Fart is a fart that makes its own echo.  It is a
  two-toned fart, the first tone loud, then a pause, and then the second
  tone.  Like an echo.

THE G AND L FART:  This is one of the most ordinary and pedestrian of farts,
  known to everyone.  Certainly it is the least gross.  If you have not
  already guessed, G and L stands for Gambled and Lost.  One of the most
  embarrassing of all farts, even when you are alone.

THE GHOST FART:  A doubtful fart in most cases, as it is supposed to be
  identified by odor alone and to occur, for instance, in an empty house.
  You enter and smell a fart, yet no one is there.  People will insist
  that only a fart could have that odor, but some believe it is just
  something that happens to smell like a fart.

THE HIC-HACHOO-FART FART:  This is strictly an old lady's fart.  What
  happens is that the person manages to hiccup, sneeze, and fart all at
  the same time. After an old lady farts a Hic-Hachoo-Fart Fart she will
  usually pat her chest and say, "My, my", or "Well, well".  There is no
  reason she should not be proud, as this is probably as neat an old
  person's fart as there is.

THE JERK FART:  The Jerk Fart is a fart by a jerk who smirks, smiles, grins,
  and points to himself in case you missed it.  It is usually a single-noted,
  off-key, fading away, sort of whistle fart, altogether pitiful, but the
  jerk will act as if he has just farted the Biggest Fart in the World Fart.

THE JOHN FART:  The John Fart is simply any ordinary fart farted on the john.
  It is naturally a group one identification, with the sound, whatever it
  was, somewhat muffled.  If it is all the person's trip to the john
  amounted to he will be disappointed for sure.  Common as pigeons.

THE LEAD FART:  The heaviest of all farts.  It sounds like a dropped ripe
  watermelon.  Or a falling body in some cases.  It is the only fart that
  goes thud.  Except for the odor, which is also very heavy, it could be
  missed altogether as a fart.  "What was that?", you might think.   And
  never guess.

THE MALTED MILK BALL FART:  Odor alone is diagnostic and positively
  identifies this fart.  It smells exactly like malted milk balls.
  No other food works this way.  It is rare.

THE OH MY GOD FART:  This is the most awful and dreadful stinking of all
  farts.  A fart that smells like a month-old rotten egg.  Your natural
  reaction is to say, "Oh my god!".  If you should ever encounter it,
  however, you may first want to say, oh shit, which would be understandable.

THE OMEN FART:  This is the adult version of the Poo-Poo Fart.  About the
  only difference is that the farter will not say anything.  He will just
  look kind of funny and head for the john.  This one is easy to spot if
  you pay attention.

THE ORGANIC FART:  Sometimes called the Health Food Nut Fart.  The person
  who farts an Organic Fart may be talking about the healthy food he eats
  even when he farts.  If he is heavily into health foods he may even ask
  if you noticed how good and pure and healthy his fart smells.  It may
  smell to you like any other fart, but there is no harm in agreeing with
  him.  He is doing what he thinks is best.

THE QUIVER FART:  A group one identification fart only.  When you fart, it
  quivers.  If it tickles, then it is the Tickle Fart.  If you have to
  scratch it, then it is the Scratchass Fart.

THE RAMBLING PHADUKA FART:  You must not be fooled by its pretty-sounding
  name, as this is one of the most frightening of all farts.  It is
  frightening to farter and spectator alike.  It has a sound of pain to it.
  What is most diagnostic about it, however, is its length.  It is the
  longest-lasting fart there is.  It will sometimes leave the farter unable
  to speak.  As though he has had the wind knocked out of him.  A strong,
  loud, wavering fart, it goes on for at least fifteen seconds.

THE RELIEF FART:  Sound or odor don't matter on this one.  What matters is
  the tremendous sense of relief that you have finally farted.  Some people
  will-even say, "Wow, what a relief!".  Very common.

THE RELUCTANT FART:  This is probably one of the oldest farts known to man.
  The Reluctant Fart is a fart that seems to have a mind of its own.  It
  gives the impression that it likes staying where it is.  It will come
  when it is ready, not before.  This can take half-a-day in some instances.

THE RUSTY GATE FART:  The sound of this fart seems almost impossible for a
  fart.  Is is the most dry and squeaky sound a fart can make.  The Rusty
  Gate Fart sounds as if it would have worked a lot easier if it had been
  oiled.  It sounds like a fart that hurts.

THE S.B.D. FART:  S.B.D. stands for Silent But Deadly.  This is no doubt
  one of the most common farts that exists.  No problem of identification
  with this one.

 THE SANDPAPER FART:  This one scratches.  Otherwise it may not amount to
  much.  You should remember that if you reach back and scratch, it
  automatically becomes a Scratchass Fart.  Common.

THE SKILL-SAW FART:  A truly awesome fart.  It vibrates the farter.  Really
  shakes him up.  People back away.  It sounds like an electric skill-saw
  ripping through a piece of half-inch plywood.  Very impressive.  Not too
  common.

THE SONIC BOOM FART:  The people who believe in this fart claim it is even
  bigger than the Biggest Fart In The World Fart.  The Sonic Boom Fart is
  supposed to shake the house and rattle the windows.  This is ridiculous.
  No fart in the world shakes houses and rattles windows.  A fart that
  could do that would put the farter into orbit or blow his crazy head off.

THE STUTTER FART:  If you think stuttering is funny, this is a very funny
  fart.  It is a fart that can't seem to get going.  The sound is best
  described as "pt,pt,pt-pt,pt-pt-pt,pop,pop-pop-pop-POW!"  It is usually a
  forced-out fart that gets caught crossways, as they say, and only gets
  farted after considerable effort.

THE SPLATTER FART:  Unfortunately the Splatter Fart exists.  It is the
  wettest of all farts.  It probably should not be called a fart at all.

THE TACO BELL FART:  The Taco Bell Fart is far richer and full-bodied than
  your ordinary Junk Fart and takes longer to build up.  Sometimes hours,
  or even a day.  But it will get there.  And it will hang around after,
  too, even on a windy day.

THE TEFLON FART:  Slips out without a sound and no strain at all.  A very
  good fart in situations where you would rather not fart at all.  You can
  be talking to someone and not miss saying a word.  If the wind is right
  he will never know.

THE THANK GOD I'M ALONE FART:  Everyone knows this rotten fart.  You look
  around after you have farted and say "Thank God I'm alone!".  Then you
  get out of there.

THE TICKLE FART:  A group one only and one of the easiest to identify.
  Usually a slow soft sort of fart.  If you like being tickled this is the
  fart for you.

THE UNDERWEAR RIPPER FART:  Sound alone is diagnostic with this fart.  It
  will usually happen when the person is sitting down.  It is one of the
  longer farts.  It will sound so much like a piece of cloth being ripped
  that it can fool a person sitting in the next room.  Naturally it will
  not fool the farter.  He will know he has not ripped his underwear.
  But right then he may not be too sure about anything else.

THE UP-TIGHT FART:  This is a kind of drawn-out Stutter Fart except that
  this one squeaks.  When he knows he has to fart, like it or not, he gets
  even more up-tight.  He may snap his sphincter shut like a steel trap,
  but out comes the fart.  "Squeak, squeak, squeak."  It is embarrassing
  for everyone.

THE VENTRILOQUIST FART:  This is something that just happens.  It is
  doubtful if anyone can learn to throw his farts.  But sometimes, if
  all the conditions are right, it will happen.  And the person sitting
  next to the farter will look surprised and embarrassed and the farter
  will look suprised and pleased.This will have been a Ventriloquist Fart.
  It is an extremely hard one to identify unless you are the farter.

THE WHO CUT THE CHEEZE FART:  An easy identification with this one.
  Somone has got to say, "Who cut the cheeze?" when the fart is first
  noticed or it cannot be called a Who Cut The Cheeze Fart.  It may or
  may not have an odor like strong cheese, but it will have an odor.

THE YODEL FART:  The Yodel Fart sounds like a fart whose voice is changing,
  like a yodel.  It can be either a Swiss mountain yodeler type of yodel
  or an American cowboy singer type of yodel.

THE YO-YO FART:  This is a spectacular fart.  A real dilly.  Sound alone
  identifies it.  It makes the Octave Fart sound like a hiccup.  It starts
  out on the highest fart note possible and goes all the way down to
  the lowest fart note possible.  And then, to the amazement of everyone,
  it comes all the way back up again.  Extremely rare.
