nashBridges: I'll have you know I'm as fearsome as the come after egg and chili day, subby.

I think the typo makes that twice as disgusting as you intended, but maybe you were just being all clever or something.

Bravo sir.

Earlier this month, three Chinese coal mine accidents within four days killed at least 42 people.

That's some worker's paradise they got going on there.

Yankee Jim?

Oh, you rikey egg roll GI? You rikey fortune cookie?

That must have been one hell of a suppries.

I thought Yankee Jim was a ghost in San Diego. It's a food too?

GIS for yankee jim?

phrawgh: Oh, you rikey egg roll GI? You rikey fortune cookie?

I read that as Rick Roll at first. Damn you Rick Astley!

Awww shiat they are greenlighting fart jokes now. shiat fark be fuct.

The Deadlest catch guys seem to have a desk job compared to the danger of being a Chineese miner.

I am one of the rare few human beings capable of producing methane in my farts.

My farts are both smelly and highly flammable. Farts so bad, it could strip the white off a skeleton. Bring a tear to a glass eye. Make a statue hold its nose. Knock a buzzard off a shiat house.

I swear, I was not in China at the time of this event.

Google isn't helping much - is Yankee Jim a beer?

nevermind - found it

It's not a good fart unless the dog leaves room with a disgusted look on its face

Load up my neighbor's male pug with some cheddar cubes and undercooked chili, and I'm pretty sure I can duplicate the event here in Canada.

He's quite adept at the silent crop dusting technique, and I swear he set off the fire alarm at my old apartment downtown.

gastrointestinal trifecta in play?

Yankee Jim?

Cue the "Who farted y'all" beauty pagent contestant.

I think "Pooping guy" at the jail last week would win ANY competition of bad farts. I don't know what they arrested him for, but thankfully they kept him in the drunk tank where they could just use the hose to clean up after him. I'm glad I was done running cable to that side of the jail.

Ok, we give. WHat country is "Yankee Jim" from, and what the heck does it mean?

For those of you who are interested in a severe case of gas let me suggest to you a hearty serving of red kidney beans. One must cook the kidney beans correctly, which is to say over an 8 hour period in a crock pot. If cooked slowly the beans retain a small amount of poison that will give you a great case of gut busting laughter. I like to use a 32 oz bag of raw beans soaked in water for 8 to 10 hours. Then fill the crock pot with 2 teaspoons of ground cumin, 1 or 2 teaspoons of chipotle powder, a 32 ounce can of canned tomatoes that's been pureed with a whole onion (or two) preferably yellow or red. Add a bag of frozen corn (organic please) and whatever vegetables you may enjoy. I like okra. Also, if you have have a garlic press when the beans are finished add at least 1 bulb of garlic otherwise add a diced bulb 2 hours before the finish time.

This recipe will have you toot-toot-tooting away your day in precious solitude and will discourage any irksome presence looking to bring you down. You will quickly become immune to your own bowel-ish odor so this shouldn't be of any particular concern. Also the glee as the foul winds escape through your sphincter will reverberate with boisterous enthusiasm is both comedic and pleasurable.

Addendum: As it's obvious from the previous comments, it has something to do with cheese, and/or farting, and/or other gastro-intestine difficulties...

...hmm...

Rephrase of original question: Ok, we give. What part of the country is "Yankee Jim" from, and what the heck does it mean.

(I suspect upper midwest in origin, because only like 38 people live there.*)

* - SD, MN, WI, ND, NE, MT, MO, KS, et al. "WE HAVE CORN" = yes.

Addendum to my addendum:

Given that 30 of the 38 people in upper northwest have responded* without letting the rest of us in, it's either a north-midwest thing (in which case we can go on) or somebody isn't telling something.

*they all have cheese in their responses. HELLO WISCONSIN!

add/add/add/nauseum: Does it matter I haven't read the article yet? I'm still suspecting cheese. From Canada.

Canada is part of the greater Wisconsin/St. Louis area, yes?

(goes in search of map and more beer, and - possibly - sleep.)

ok, one more time...WHAT IS YANKEE JIM!?!??

Just to mix things up a bit--anyone ever had a gas "inburst"?

ok, what is an "inburst" & Yankee Jim.

Butter Beans
Broccoli Salad
Potato Salad
North Carolina Puller pork sandwiches with Cole Slaw on them.

If you eat the 4 things on this list, you will produce farts that could power the USA into the next century, but Canada will be even more pissed about it than they were about that little acid rain thing.

\Corned Beef and Cabage washed down with a few pints of Guinness can be dangerous too.

It's beer... a particularly horrible beer whose one redeeming quality is you can recycle the can afterwards.

Thanks Reyito. It's rare that someone mentions a beer that I haven't seen or had, let alone even heard of...
/dark beer usually does my lower GI tract in.

human rights are my personal joke

so cool am I

This one time.. after a sausage/onion/potato bake.. I ripped one, right? My friend/roommate stopped the car. Without a word. He got out. He walked home. We were about 10 miles from home. After about 1/2 an hour of sitting in the car, I realized he wasn't coming back. He took the keys with him.
I had a phone, he didn't.. I called a cab, I beat him back home, and he had to pay a few hundred in ticket/towing. Still, it was the finest possible commentary on my defective GI tract that I have ever witnessed.
I don't know where I'm going with this.

Normally I despise the clone army, but somehow my morality meter is telling me that I shouldn't be saying,

"Oh, yes, quite", while reading this news cross-legged in front of a fire over a cup of Red Rose

I thought Chinese people were good at math.

I can just hear the wife now, "What the hell did you EAT?

Not pleased.

My wife and I were once travelling down the freeway, heading home after having dinner at a local mexican food joint.

All the windows were down and open in my Ranger (including the sliding rear window), and as I did 75 down the freeway, I ripped one.

To this day my wife swears it stayed in the cab, followed us home, and is now living with us in the house.
