"Science News: Your body may already have a molecule that helps fight Alzheimer’s

Researchers at the Paul Scherrer Institute PSI have clarified how spermine - a small molecule that regulates many processes in the body's cells - can guard against diseases such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's. Spermine was first identified more than 150 years ago and named after seminal fluid, where it is present in particularly high concentrations."

The pig was helping you prevent Alzheimer's.

When we sold the cows we went to laying hens and hogs when I was about 9 years old. As the oldest boy my job was taking care of the swine herd. We had Durocs and Yorkshires and alternated boars. We only had about 7-8 sows and we sold mostly feeder pigs. I knew the boars had to be handled with care, but I soon learned that 300-400 lbs. sows tending their litters could be a handful as well. I was using an older fork to clean a pen with a sow and a litter. I got a bit too close as she was laying and she snapped the handle of the older for right in half. I gained new respect for those that minute.

I had them in a pasture so when the boar wanted to mount one of the gilts (which he outweighed by about 600 lbs) I needed him to finish fast so he didn't break them down. That meant I sometimes had to help make the "love connection" to hurry things along. For those that know, a hog has a pretty interesting looking and long penis. One memory that stands out is the darn thing doubling up when it missed on a thrust and squirting his full load square in my face from mouth to eyeballs!

Ah yes, raising pigs....such fond memories! LOL


Sweet baby Jesus. I wasn't expecting to read a reply along these lines.
I'm laughing so hard that it hurts.
A man's gotta be secure in his skin to tell this story
Beaverpeeler thank you for the laugh of the day.



I came in out of the woods early just to see who else actually reads what others post. This has been a whopper of a thread.


I have nothing clever to put here.

I don't think I can unhear what I just read Peeler. Shaking hands would be out of the question with that thought in my mind. lol

Typical Texan! Sure, you blame the PIG for what happened. I think Peeler had a "hand" in it too.


I have nothing clever to put here.

This post may be carryover from Savell's "be nice thread"? Thank you Savell, next time I'm "adventuring" around farm animals I'll invite you over.


My fear of moving stairs is escalating!

Dang Keith, you sure captured a moment in my life! Gotta say though, by the time those gilts were all bred that boar and I had become pretty close.... so I had to forgive him.
