For quite some time I have noticed a big drop in the number of spam emails I get from people offering help in improving the condition and performance ability of a special part of me.Speaking of that, did you know that a Texan has discovered a Natural Viagra? Watermelon. Bhimu Patil, director of the Fruit and Vegetable Improvement Center at Texas A & M University, at College Station, claims watermelon has more citrulline than previously believed.
Citrulline is an amino acid that relaxes and dilates blood vessels, the body converts it to the amino acid arginine, which is a precursor for nitric oxide, an oxide which is a key component in a key male component.
No one knows how much watermelon one must eat in order to gain any possible salubrious affect. Watermelon is 92% water and 8% sugar. It is rich in lypocene, an antioxidant which gives it its red color. It is fat free. It contains Vitamin A, C, and a lot of other things that are good for you, especially citrulline.
While you are contemplating eating some watermelon you'll be happy to know that the 56th Annual Luling Watermelon Thump will take place June 25, 26, 27 & 28 down south in Luling, Texas. Luling is on Interstate 10, about 50 miles east of San Antonio and about the same distance south of Austin. That'd make Luling about 230 miles south of my location in Fort Worth.
Thousands of people come to the Watermelon Thump. There's a Carnival, Beer Garden, Lots of Food, Magicians, Fire Eaters, Street Dances, Arts & Crafts, Melon Judging, a Rodeo, Parade, Watermelon Eating Contest and, of course, the World Champion Seed Spitting Contest.
On Thursday you can go to the Thump for free, including the Entertainment and Dance. On Friday and Saturday it'll cost you $2 General Admission, $20 for the Dance/Concert. Kids under 11 admitted free. Admission is free on Sunday.
