BITS OF INFORMATION TO HELP YOU THROUGH THE DAY

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 fart 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.

A pig's orgasm lasts for 30 minutes. (In my next life
I want to be a pig!)

Banging your head against a wall uses 150 calories an
hour. (Still not over that pig thing!)

Humans and dolphins are the only species that have sex
for pleasure. (Is that why Flipper was always smiling?
And, why isn't the pig included in this list?)

On average people fear spiders more than they do
death.

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

A crocodile cannot stick its tongue out.

The ant can lift 50 times its own weight, can pull 30
times its own weight and always falls over on its
right side when intoxicated. (From drinking little
bottles of...?) (Did the gov't pay for this
research??)

The flea can jump 350 times its body length. It's like
a human jumping the length of a football field.

A cockroach will live nine days without it's head,
before it starves to death.

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.

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

Butterflies taste with their feet. (Oh, jeez!)

Elephants are the only animals that can't jump.
An ostrich's eye is bigger than it's brain.(I know some people like that.)

Starfish don't have brains. (I know some people like that too!)

Remember, when someone annoys you, it takes 42 muscles
in your face to frown. BUT, it only takes 4 muscles
to extend your arm and smack the asshole upside the head
