What started as a quest for a dream body soon turned into a nightmare....

My husband is really dramatic about farting . When we were dating , he teased me about not passing gas around him and would try to get me to let one go. He, on the other hand, farted under the stars, farted in the car, and farted in the silence between songs on the radio.

In this precarious and sensitive time, people going missing is a terrifying thing to hear.
