Arrested for Burping
Some stupid teachers in New Mexico called the cops because a student burped in his PE class. The kid was arrested and taken to jail!
Full details over at my blog site, BelchSpeak.

Beer! In Space!
I for one think its about time that we created a beer that can be consumed in comfort in zero gravity. Yay beer!
From ABCnet here:
An Australian brewery has completed the first batch of what might be the most niche beer to be made to date – a beer designed to be drunk in space.
“In space your whole entire face, including your tongue, swells,” says Jaron. “It becomes a lot harder to taste things in space. With all the swelling all of your taste buds become almost a bit numb, in a way,” he says.
Jaron says they’re fairly certain that if space tourists were served a regular beer they would not be able to taste it. Another problem with regular beer is that it can cause burping, which in space can get pretty messy.“The second thing that can happen in space is what’s called wet burp,” says Jaron. “On earth when you burp, due to the gravity that’s acting on your stomach, the gas and the liquid separate, however in space… the gas and the liquid can both come up during a burp.”
This means a space beer must be low in carbonation.
