Question about saltpeter

[jmowreader]

Saltpeter is supposed to keep you from getting a hard-on, right?

But saltpeter is an ingredient in bacon.

(Traditional saltpeter is potassium nitrate; Chile Saltpeter, the modern bacon additive, is sodium nitrate.)

Therefore, following this logic, if saltpeter did what they claim it does, why do men like bacon so much?

1. Not sure about that, but it makes quite a cannon when mixed with

Sulfur Coal, and a few diamonds in a bamboo wrapped tube.

Then again trip wires aren't that bad either.

What was the question again?




And of coarse a spark.

2. You need to make a rudimentary lathe first.

Steps man, follow the steps!!

4. had to look that one up.

Galaxy quest, remember that scene now, that was a funny movie.


Actually a pretty good film, not my beliefs in some of the concepts. Although I understand its perspective and can find some good things in it.

Did you notice that the 'communication officers' role was to repeat what the computer told her. That is a reference to some inspired writings. It is negative and part of parrot doctrine, not fair to think of inspired people as puppets, they add much heart to many things they do. I think it requires the combination.

There are lots of parts of that movie I disagree with, that idea for instance is not about friendship or gift, or value of many parts of things.

But there are some great things in it also.


"Its all real, I knew it." LOL, not really but funny.

And "And there is something you don't know, I am dragging mines" LOL funny comment on that one also, fits a sequence, the drawing of collision in relative conversation, the unbreakable cast, the breaking of pet doctrine, and navigating its minefields, a few other things.

Just musing now, but yea, that movie has some zingers in it.

...I don't know about anyone else, but paradoxically, bacon makes me... ... ... crispy.

So on a daily basis, I share James T. Kirk's weekly dilemma (and I agree with the answer):

5. Why do you suppose men never ever cook bacon in the nude?

I'm just saying.

7. 'cuz the only thing worse than hot-grease-induced burn spots...

...are hot-grease-induced burn spots than stretch and are then exposed to lots of cyclic friction!

6. That's probably one of the causes of erectile dysfunction in this country.

Because men can't lay off the bacon.

I'm glad I only eat that stuff once in a blue moon. Even the thought of bacon makes me want to puke. :puke:
