Hey, I ate half a tepin!  Okay, so it pretty much brought me to my 
knees, weeping, hiccuping/belching (my "damn that's hot!" 
reaction...probably because I cannot *breathe*), and generally wanting 
to roll around in a kiddie pool full of green jello.

Wait a sec...I have the same reaction to eating red savinas as well as 
women in leather with bullwhips....hmmm...

Go figure.
