Deep Thoughts On Life, Episode 1

My buddy Andrew and I have this idea... basically it's one of those fancy "library reading" books... short chapters, if you catch my meaning. Here's the idea for one chapter...

There is a procedure whenever you go to a doctor's office. You've all experienced it. It doesn't matter if it is a family doctor, a dentist, an eye doctor... this has happened to you.
You're sitting in the lobby, reading some magazine that's probably a couple of months old, when a nurse, or office assistant (who's probably in scrubs, anyway) opens "the door" and calls your name. They lead you down some hallway, open a door, and you go into the little room.

"The doctor will be right with you."

So, you sit there, looking around the room for something else to do, because you set the magazine down in the lobby.

A few minutes go by.

No doctor.

A few more minutes go by. You've been sitting there for half an hour (or more). You are all by your lonesome.

And the deep thought strikes:

If you pass gas in the little room:

a. someone will walk in within one minute;
b. they are going to know that it was you who dealt it.
