Butterflies in the stomach - From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Butterflies in the stomach is a medical condition characterized by the physical sensation of a "fluttery" (hence butterflies) feeling in the stomach. Some believe that this is caused by the release of epinephrine, or adrenaline, when one is nervous, pulling blood away from the stomach and sending it to the muscles. Butterflies in the stomach is most often experienced prior to important events, when stress is induced, but can be experienced in situations of impending danger.

You know what I don't get? When they have the word verification thingy and then it says "If you are disabled or otherwise cannot read this, please message the Administrator" but wtf, as if you can read that if you can't read a bunch of squiggly-ish letters!
Heheh. Well, that'll learn me for being inquisitive and searching wikipedia for random stuff.
Word Verification=?
