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:

I love his new paper towel commercial with his "parents". It's pretty cute :)

Ummmmm, in case you were wondering... Even as I look outside and see a complete white-out with rapid accumulation, it's not really snowing. According to the weather channel... :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!

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

      Thanks, I’m still dealing with the pain and tingling and itching and feeling like bugs or something crawling around on my face and scalp. It’s been a miserable experience.

I saw my eye doc last week, the eye itself was okay, so they didn’t do anything. I did take a 7 day course of an antiviral. I’m hoping for a turnaround soon! My life is full of stress but I have been on / off the gluten free diet for the last year , after being talked into going back on gluten to have a biopsy, that looked okay. But I do have positive antibody levels that have been responsive  to a gluten free diet. I can’t help but wonder if the last year has caused all this.

Ultimately there is no substitution for learning to read labels. The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. It's very important to learn to read labels and understand sources of hidden gluten, and to know some general information about product labelling--for example in the USA if wheat is a possible allergen it must be declared on a product's ingredient label like this: Allergens: Wheat.
