Not if, but when...

There is a time in every trainee's life when that sudden rumble in your stomach sparks the worst panic possible - "where's the nearest toilet!!!" you ask yourself - "will i make it?" especially since you can't run or walk as fast with clenched cheeks.

Hopefully you've made it and are soon swept with relief for not emptying your load into you trousers in public :P

I myself had this experience 10, i repeat ten, times yesterday - probably because of the water i drank on the movie set - i made it every time, although there were a few close calls (too much info?) and so here's the big question...

Should i call up Guiness World records with this feat of 10 bouts of dihorea or do we know of anyone else who has done better? or should that be worse?

Ryan...i think you drunk water from the wrong water source in Patiala...there was a "V.I.P" water source in there, Neve Campbell told me that...

I think you should send your spelling of "diorhea" into the Guiness Book of World Records for the most butchered spelling of a word by an native english speaker.

For the record, it's diarrhea.

But ya, i know the feeling. At least you can look forward to an "iron shakti" stomach once you're through with it.

Nacho, you pimp. You looked like a 1920s gangsta that frequents speakeasies in your costume.

talking about English Kent....what the hell is "speakeasies"?...explain...i'm not a native...

sorry, nacho. Not sure if you know, but alcohol was illegal in the US in the 1920s and 30s. This was known as "prohibition."

Concurrently (happening at the same time), the US was going through a period known as the "roaring twenties." It was essentially a boom in the economy and everyone was getting rich off the stock market.

So everyone was happy and no one could drink. I think we all know that this creates a problem.

That's when gangsters like you began bootlegging liquor. That is to say, illegally transporting liquor, from places like Canada, into the US.

To sell the liquor, local restaurants became midnight hangouts for the social elite. People would come and watch various acts and consume some of the forbidden juice. The name given to this kind of establishment was a "speakeasy."

There is a simpsons episode where moe's tavern becomes a speakeasy. It's the one with rex banner and the beer baron.

Is that clear enough?

"Speakeasy, drunky easy"
