Well, this is really embarassing, but maybe the forum can save me.
As some of you may know, I cannot burp. This is a lifelong handicap I have endured. I have burped maybe 10 times in my life, all by accident, and just puny little squeaks that are barely audible. I feel the need to burp, particularly when I drink beer or water, but I can\'t do it. Instead, the built up gas slowly subsides over a couple of hours. It\'s a horrible way to live.
Many people have tried giving me advice, but nobody has been able to give me the magical anecdotes that can teach me how to burp. Anyone who can post directions on how to burp that cure my horrible ailment will be rewarded to the tune of an evening for you and 4 of your friends at Sally\'s Apizza, on me. Thanks for your caring and good luck to both of us.
