The best course is to go stand next to an old lady,
preferably one who looks wealthy. Let fly with your
pressure-release, then turn to the old lady and whisper
loudly, "Look innocent, lady, and everybody will think
that *I* did it!" :-)

That actually happened in a movie at Texas A&M during
the 1950's.

OK Cecil. I'll bite, since no one else has.
How do you know that happened?

I was in the movie theater at the time and the
culprit, whom I recognized, lived in the same
dorm as I. I believe the date was late 1956.

Which reminds me of an old limerick:

I sat next to the Duchess at tea,
Which was simply the wrong place to be.
Her rumblings abdominal
Were simply phenomenal,
And everyone thought it was me!

I think if you're standing next to farting royalty, you're required to
take the blame.

Ethical question
 
At Heathrow Airport, a 300-foot long red carpet is stretched out to Air Force One. Mr.
Bush strides to a warm but dignified handshake from Queen Elizabeth II.

They ride in a silver 1934 Bentley limousine to the edge of central London where they
board an open, 17th Century coach hitched to six magnificent white matching horses.

As they ride toward Buckingham Palace, each looking sideways and waving to the thousands
of thousands of cheering Brits lining the streets, all is going well.

But suddenly the right rear horse lets fly with the most horrendous, earth-rending,
eye-smarting blast of gastronomic flatulence ever heard in the British Empire, including
Bermuda, Tortola and The Falkland Islands. It shakes the coach. Uncomfortable, but
under control, the two dignitaries of state do their best to ignore the whole incident.

But then the Queen decides that's ridiculous. She turns to Mr. Bush and explains,
"Mr. President, please accept my regrets.... I'm sure you understand that there are
some things that even a Queen cannot control."

George W. Bush, ever the gentleman, replies, "Your Majesty, please don't give the
matter another thought ... you know, if you hadn't said something, I would have thought
it was one of the horses."

These aren't your only two options. You could simply let it rip and
proudly accept full responsibility.


Some are The-Queen-of-Hearts and
others are simply The-King-of-Farts [.]

The-King-of-Farts would proudly proclaim :
Yeah - I Did That ! and Yes My Name Is STINKY !

I bet people fart around you and you're so lazy you won't get out of the
stink. But you like stink, don't you.
