It's a possibility that the smell is coming from the drain. I've noticed that we haven't tracked in any ice or snow for a while and the garage floor (and drain) is dry . . . which hasn't happened too often this winter so that may be why the smell is coming and going. I poured a couple of glasses of water down the drain to flush it and I'll see if I notice a difference in the strength of the smell in the morning.

But riddle me this, I don't believe this drain goes to the same kind of sewer line as say a terloit. Maybe something is dead in my drain.

I will inform you of my test results tomorrow. In the mean time . . . Peter, stay away from me!!

If something died in the drain it might not get flushed out with lines farther down being partly frozen, or partly empty from other areas being frozen. More likely, I think, is that the dry air has evaporated all the water in the trap that keeps the sewer smells contained (however far down that trap is) so your garage pipe probably does connect to the main sewer pipe, and the smell-protective-traps aren't working.

This happens at my work some times, except I get barraged with nasty chemical smells. Goes away when I pour in some water.

She stuffed him into my can and is making me sit on the lid to keep him inside.

Hereabouts, any drain from within the building goes to the sanitary sewer. You don't know what somebody might let go of in the garage when nobody is looking. :ph34r:

Always make sure that the traps in all your drains have enough water. You don't want vapoUrs from down there to make their way up. :rolleyes:

It still smells . . . trying to decide if it smells as strong. Maybe Skeeter or Smackl hid some of their broccoli out in the garage somewhere . . . that always stinks when it goes bad.

Let's hope it can't get across the Equator, or the International Date Line!!. I hereby proclaim these boundaries to the phluid phlood. Of course for all the Yanks, I will proclaim the Canadian boarder as another boundary. That only leaves poor Em to run for the hills!! But then, she's the reigning monarch, she can make some kind of proclamation or somethink, Yeah, Em, whatcher gonna do about this impending calamity? :o

All right, I need input as to whether or not this would qualify as phluid onslaught.... . . .you may be able to rest easy, pholks, as phluid indeed flowed here and caused a calamity, of sorts:

Last evening I heard a strange, rattling noise coming from the fridge. It got quite loud, and slowly abated (thank gawd) by the time we went to bed. Well, this morning the fridge wasn't working. I looked carefully inside, and a bag of milk that was sitting on the back of the upper shelf had been slowly leaking, and it was almost empty. It had run all down the back, into the freezer (which is on the bottom) and sat, pooling and freezing. So, the fridge had to be ripped apart by a $$$$$$$$ repairman this afternoon, and the fan and compressor chipped out of the ice milk. :angry:

Okay, so phlowing phluids happened here! Destructive, icy phluids! it's gotta count!

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      Have you tried Pure Encapsulations supplements? This is a brand my doctor recommends for me. I have no issues with this brand.

      FDA Moves to Improve Gluten Labeling—What It Means for People With Celiac Disease

I have osteoporosis too, so that is why the hormones.  anyway, i think all celiacs should have homocysteine checked and treated if needed (easy enough with b vit, tmg). homocysteine very bad thing to be high for a whole host of reasons. all the bad ones, heart attack , stroke, alzi, cancer..... one of the most annoying things about celiacs (and there are so many!) is the weight gain. i guess i stayed thin all those years being undiagnosed because i was under absorbing everything including calories. going gluten-free and the weight gain has been terrible, 30#, but i'm sure a lot more went into that (hip replacement - and years of hip pain leading to inactivity when i was previously very active, probably all related to celiacs, menopause) yada yada. i seemed to lose appetite control, like there was low glp, or leptin or whatever all those hormones are that tell you that you are full and to stop eating. my appetite is immense and i'm never full. i guess decades or more ( i think i have had celiacs since at least my teens - was hospitalized for abdominal pain and diarrhea for which spastic colon was eventually diagnosed and had many episodes of diarrhea/abdominal pain through my 20's. but that symptom seemed to go away and i related it to dairy much more so than gluten. Also my growth was stunted, i'm the only shorty in my family. anyway, decades of malabsorption and maldigestion led to constant hunger, at least thats my theory. then when i started absorbing normally, wham!! FAT!!!
