Just Silly Stuff

It's 2:20 in the am and I am still up and bright eyed. Too much caffeine. Most of the posts I keep reading have this little thingy that tells you why they created this blog.. well, except for the intellectual blogs and we know why they were created. Well, I created this blog to keep track of all the stuff that I want to remember but gets lost on my hard drive. Who the blazes needs a 150 gig hard drive anyway. It's like having a 200 drawer filing cabinet. What do you put on it? How much music do you need? How many photos can you take... and if you're not filling it up with music, photos and videos then what are you filling it up with???? Inquiring minds want to know!!

NOTE:   I now have a desktop, laptop, iPad, iPod Touch and a Zen.  They are crammed full of music, photos and books.  Somehow that 150gig hard drive seems mighty small now.  I'm looking for a Terabyte already.

I got this as an email so long ago that I can't remember when. It was in an old folder on the old computer. Came across it as I was house cleaning the hard drive. I thought it was funny and maybe worth keeping... Don't know who wrote it or I would be happy to give them credit.

Who does write all the stuff that comes in the email? There seems to be a never ending supply of things, photos, whatever that have no author attached. Another one of life's little mysteries.

It's almost 2:30 in the am and I am closing up shop. Have a good one.
Points of Fact... truth truly is stranger than fiction


If you yelled for 8 years, 7 months and 6 days you would have produced enough sound energy to heat one cup of coffee. (Hardly seems worth it.)

If you farted consistently for 6 years and 9 months, enough gas is produced to create the energy of an atomic bomb. (Now that's more like it!)

The human heart creates enough pressure when it pumps out to the body to squirt blood 30 feet. (O.M.G.!)

A pig's orgasm lasts 30 minutes. (In my next life, I want to be a pig.)
A cockroach will live nine days without its head before it starves to death. (Creepy.)  (I'm still not over the pig.)

Banging your head against a wall uses 150 calories a hour
(Don't try this at home, maybe at work)

The male praying mantis cannot copulate while its head is attached to its body. The female initiates sex by ripping the male's head off. (Honey, I'm home. What the...?!)

The flea can jump 350 times its body length. It's like a human jumping the length of a football field. (30 minutes..lucky pig! Can you imagine?)

The catfish has over 27,000 taste buds. (What could be so tasty on the bottom of a pond?)

Some lions mate over 50 times a day. (I still want to be a pig in my next life...quality over quantity)

Butterflies taste with their feet. (Something I always wanted to know.)

The strongest muscle in the body is the tongue. (Hmmmmmm.... ..)

Right-handed people live, on average, nine years longer than left-handed people. (If you're ambidextrous, do you split the difference?)

Elephants are the only animals that cannot jump. (Okay, so that would be a good thing)

A cat's urine glows under a black light. (I wonder who was paid to figure that out?)

An ostrich's eye is bigger than its brain. ( I know some people like that.)

Starfish have no brains (I know some people like that too.)

Polar bears are left-handed. (If they switch, they'll live a lot longer)

Humans and dolphins are the only species that have sex for pleasure.
(What about that pig??)
