ts~ oh geez... and i thought i was going to post the grossest post of the day. little did i know that i'd be outdone by a baby story. (o: well, here's the story i came across just now. seemed pretty gross to me -- but then, being a vegetarian, the thought of gulping down over 4 pounds of turkey in 12 minutes is..well.. mighty disgusting indeed. 100-Pound Woman Wins Turkey-Eating Contest news.yahoo.com After examining the scales, the judges announced a verdict: the 100-pound Thomas, of Alexandria, Va., had taken first prize, worth $2,500. Booker dropped to sixth place. How much turkey did Thomas eat? A total of 4 pounds, 3.1 ounces. Thomas says she took the "Black Widow" nickname because she likes to "eliminate the males" in eating contests. Her other records include eating 65 hard-boiled eggs in 6 minutes and 40 seconds. uhm... y'know.. i'm not sure which would be worse. eating 4 pounds of turkey in 12 minutes, or 65 hard-boiled eggs in just under 7 minutes. actually, i dont even want to think about it! brrrrhhhhhh!!! ~croc
