URBANA, Ill. (AP) - Someone is disposing of placentas in the sewage system and authorities in central Illinois just want it to stop. Workers in Urbana-Champaign found a placenta Thursday in a filter that keeps large objects out of the sewage treatment plant.

It was the third found this year. Officials said it's never happened before. They wonder if a midwife or veterinarian is avoiding the expense of medical waste disposal.

The placenta is an organ that joins mother and fetus and is expelled during birth.

They are potentially infectious, although health officials said the risk to the public is low. State regulations prohibit disposal in sewage systems.

Champaign County Coroner Duane Northrup said he's not entirely sure whether the placentas are human or animal. More testing is under way.

I'm sure there's going to be some great puns in this thread, but I've downed half a dozen shots of Everclear 190, and I'm not witty anymore.

Perhaps you need to E-clear your head?

As for the story... funsies. Maybe it's leftovers from Bottle's gargling?

I used to bartend with a guy that had a shirt that read Everclear: For when you want to get laid, but don't feel like talking to her.

(yes, I know it's terrible. I do not condone the sentiment, I merely note its existence)

Obama is secretly aborting white foetuses and selling them to Al Qaeda to help bring the New World Order, somehow.

WHERE'S THE CHANGE NOW?

It's a nasty joke about getting chicks drunk to have sex with them. Everclear is a super-potent alcohol that accomplishes said goal in much less time and with much more efficacy than anything else short of chloroform.

Some people just want to be the placenta of attention

Well, that would be quite a change from what the President normally does.

Oh no! I think I accidentally dropped it from a plane that I was flying over Illinois for some reason.
I hope it didn't end up anywhere unfortunate.

I thought you'd finally gotten your placenta-pult up and running. You need to work a bit on the range.
