Things you learn from children.

A can of soda will make a great geyser when hit with a hammer. A 12 pack makes a BIG puddle.

You should not stand too close to a fire alarm in a large grocery store if your child is in the basket.

A king size waterbed holds enough water to fill a 2000 square foot house 4 inches deep.

If you spray hair spray on dust bunnies and run over them with roller blades, they can ignite.

A 3 year old child's voice is louder than 200 adults in a crowded restaurant.

If you hook a dog leash over a ceiling fan, the motor is not strong enough to rotate a 42 pound boy wearing Batman underwear and a Superman cape.

If you hook a dog leash over a ceiling fan and tie it to a paint can, it does spread paint on all four walls of a 20x20 room.

You should not throw baseballs up when the ceiling fan is on.

When using a ceiling fan as a bat, you have to throw the ball up a few times before you get a hit.

A ceiling fan can hit a baseball a long way.

The glass in windows (including double pane windows) doesn't stop a baseball hit by a ceiling fan.

When you hear the toilet flush along with the words "uh oh," it's already too late.

A six-year old can start a fire with a flint rock even though a 36 year old man says they can only do it in the movies.

Certain Lego blocks will pass through the digestive tract of a 4 year old.

Play-Doh and microwave should not be used in the same sentence.

Super glue is forever.

No matter how much Jell-O you put in a swimming pool, you still can't walk on water.

Pool filters do not like Jell-O.

DVD players do not eject sandwiches, even though TV commercials show they do.

Garbage bags do not make good parachutes.

Marbles in gas tanks make lots of noise when driving.

You probably don't want to know what that smell is.

Always look in the oven before you turn it on.

Plastic toys do not like ovens.

The fire department in my town has a 5 minute response time.

The spin cycle on the washing machine does not make earthworms dizzy.

The spin cycle on the washing machine does make cats dizzy, however.

Cats throw up twice their body weight when dizzy.

Your mouth...

People whose mouth has a narrow roof are more likely to snore.

85% of the population can curl their tongue into a tube.

When kissing someone, you gain around 256 colonies of bacteria from that person.

Close to 50% of the bacteria in your mouth lives on your tongue.

If your mouth was completely dry you would not be able to taste anything.

Taste is the weakest of the five senses.

If you're right handed, you tend to chew your food on the right side.

Same for lefties, they tend to chew on the left.

Humans have a unique tongue print, just like fingerprints.

There are about 9,000 taste buds on the surface of your tongue, in your throat, and on the roof of your mouth.

Taste buds contain chemoreceptors that respond to chemicals from food and other substances that are dissolved by saliva.

A person on average produces 10,000 gallons of saliva in their life time.

That works out to just under a half a gallon a day!

In general, girls have more taste buds than boys.

Average life of a taste bud is up to ten days.

He forgot to pay his brain bill.

Her sewing machine's out of thread.

His belt doesn't go through all the loops.

Proof that evolution CAN go in reverse.

In the pinball game of life, his flippers were a little further apart than most.

I would not allow this employee to breed.

This employee is really not so much of a has-been, but more of a definite won't be.

Works well when under constant supervision and cornered like a rat in a trap.

When she opens her mouth, it seems that this is only to change whichever foot was previously in there.

She sets low personal standards and then consistently fails to achieve them.

Going to the dogs, Part 2


The first dog chapel was established in 2001. It was built in St. Johnsbury, Vermont, by Stephan Huneck, a children’s book author whose five dogs helped him recuperate from a serious illness.

Those born under the sign of the dog in Chinese astrology are considered to be loyal and discreet, though slightly temperamental.

In Iran, it is against the law to own a dog as a pet. However, if an owner can prove the dog is a guard or hunting dog, this restriction doesn’t apply.

The Mayans and Aztecs symbolized every tenth day with the dog, and those born under this sign were believed to have outstanding leadership skills.

The ancient Mbaya Indians of the Gran Chaco in South America believed that humans originally lived underground until dogs dug them up.

Plato once said that “a dog has the soul of a philosopher.”

French poodles did not originate in France but in Germany (“poodle” comes from the German pudel or pudelhund, meaning “splashing dog”).

The name of the dog on the Cracker Jacks box is Bingo. The Taco Bell Chihuahua is a rescued dog named Gidget.

The first dogs were self-domesticated wolves which, at least 12,000 years ago, became attracted to the first sites of permanent human habitation.

Dachshunds were bred to fight badgers in their dens.

Laiki, a Russian stray, was the first living mammal to orbit the Earth, in the Soviet Sputnik spacecraft in 1957. Though she died in space, her daughter Pushnika had four puppies with President John F. Kennedy’s terrier, Charlie.

Dalmatians are completely white at birth.

The term “dog days of summer” was coined by the ancient Greeks and Romans to describe the hottest days of summer that coincided with the rising of the Dog Star, Sirius.

Alexander the Great is said to have founded and named a city Peritas, in memory of his dog.

Dog trainers in ancient China were held in high esteem. A great deal of dog domestication also took place in China, especially dwarfing and miniaturization.

The earliest European images of dogs are found in cave paintings dating back 12,000 years ago in Spain.

The dog was frequently depicted in Greek art, including Cerberus, the three-headed hound guarding the entrance to the underworld, and the hunting dogs which accompanied the virgin goddess of the chase, Diana.

A puppy is born blind, deaf, and toothless.

The Basenji is the world’s only barkless dog.

A dog most likely interprets a smiling person as baring their teeth, which is an act of aggression.

The origin of amputating a dog’s tail may go back to the Roman writer Lucius Columella’s (A.D. 4-70) assertion that tail docking prevented rabies.

One of Shakespeare’s most mischievous characters is Crab, the dog belonging to Launce in the Two Gentlemen of Verona. The word “watchdog” is first found in The Tempest.

President Franklin Roosevelt created a minor international incident when he claimed he sent a destroyer to the Aleutian Islands just to pick up his Scottish Terrier, Fala, who had been left behind.

Within hours of the September 11, 2001, attack the World Trade Center, specially trained dogs were on the scene, including German Shepherds, Labs, and even a few little Dachshunds.

It costs approximately $10,000 to train a federally certified search and rescue dog.

The smallest dog on record was a matchbox-size Yorkshire Terrier. It was 2.5" tall at the shoulder, 3.5" from nose tip to tail, and weighed only 4 ounces.

Hollywood’s first and arguably best canine superstar was Rin Tin Tin, a five-day-old German Shepherd found wounded in battle in WWI France and adopted by an American soldier, Lee Duncan. He would sign his own contracts with his paw print.

At the end of WWI, the German government trained the first guide dogs for war-blinded soldiers.

A dog can locate the source of a sound in 1/600 of a second and can hear sounds four times farther away than a human can.

Touch is the first sense the dog develops. The entire body, including the paws, is covered with touch-sensitive nerve endings.

Eighteen muscles or more can move a dog’s ear.

The names of 77 ancient Egyptian dogs have been recorded. The names refer to color and character, such as Blackie, Ebony, Good Herdsman, Reliable, and Brave One.

Human factor, Part 1


In the average adult, the skin covers 12-20 square feet and accounts for 12% of body weight.

There are more than 600 individual skeletal muscles in the human body.

An adult skeleton has 213 bones.

Cartilage is one of the few tissues that grows throughout life. Between ages 30 and 70, a nose might grow half an inch, and the ears grow about a quarter of an inch.

The average human head has about 100,000 hairs.

As a person ages, the diameter of each hair on the head shrinks. Hair is thickest in the early 20s, but by age 70, it can be as fine as a baby's.

Hundreds of billions of neurons carry electrical signals that control the body from the brain and the spinal cord.

After sustaining trauma to the brain—such as an injury, stroke, or infection—some people develop “alien hand syndrome,” a condition where the victim can feel sensation in the hand, but has no control over movement and does not sense the hand as a part of the body, as if it belonged to an alien being.

The Greek philosopher Aristotle believed that the brain exists mainly to help cool the spirit. It is now known that the brain controls nearly every function of the body and mind.

When the pituitary gland malfunctions, it can boost or reduce the amount of growth hormone in a growing child's body, resulting in gigantism or dwarfism.

The senses are highly attuned to our world, but they have limits. For example, humans cannot see in the ultraviolet spectrum as bees do, nor can they differentiate between the hundreds of millions of odors that a bloodhound can.

The appendix has no function in modern humans. It is believed to have been part of the digestive system in our primitive ancestors.

Humans smell “in stereo.” Scent signals from each nostril travel to different regions in the brain. This may help a person determine the direction the odor is coming from.

The skin contains approximately 640,000 sense receptors, scattered unevenly over the body's surface. These receptors are most abundant in the ridges of the fingertips, in the lips, at the tip of the tongue, in the palms, on the soles of the feet, and in the genitals.

An estimated five million olfactory receptors are clustered in the membrane at the upper part of our nasal passages. These receptors help us distinguish among thousands of different odors.

There are about 9,000 taste buds on the surface of the tongue, in the throat, and on the roof of the mouth. Taste buds contain chemoreceptors that respond to chemicals from food and other substances that are dissolved by the saliva in the mouth.

Humans produce about 10,000 gallons of saliva in a lifetime. Saliva is required for taste—until food is dissolved by saliva, we cannot taste it.

Hearing is one of the less acute senses in humans, compared to the many other animals which can detect sound at much higher and lower frequency than humans can.

Chuck it, Part 9

Movie trivia: The movie "Invasion U.S.A." is, in fact, a documentary.

Multiple people have died from Chuck Norris giving them the finger.

Never look a gift Chuck Norris in the mouth, because he will bite your damn eyes off.

Ninjas want to grow up to be just like Chuck Norris. But usually they grow up just to be killed by Chuck Norris.

Noah was the only man notified before Chuck Norris relieved himself in the Atlantic Ocean.

Nobody doesn't like Sara Lee. Except Chuck Norris.

On his birthday, Chuck Norris randomly selects one lucky child to be thrown into the sun.

Once a grizzly bear threatened to eat Chuck Norris. Chuck showed the bear his fist and the bear proceeded to eat himself, because it would be the less painful way to die.

Presidents, Part 1


Abraham Lincoln (1809-1865) is the only U.S. president who was also a licensed bartender. He was co-owner of Berry and Lincoln, a saloon in Springfield, Illinois.

The only president to be unanimously elected was George Washington (1732-1799). He also refused to accept his presidential salary, which was $25,000 a year.

Harry Truman joined the Ku Klux Klan in Missouri to win their support for the judge’s seat.

Grover Cleveland was the only president in history to hold the job of a hangman. He was once the sheriff of Erie County, New York, and twice had to spring the trap at a hanging.

The “S” in Harry S Truman doesn’t stand for anything; therefore, there is no period after his middle initial.

George Washington never lived in the White House. The capital was actually located in Philadelphia and other cities when Washington was president. He is also the only president who didn’t represent a political party.

James Abram Garfield (1831-1881) is the first president to ever talk on the phone. When he spoke to Alexander Graham Bell, who was at the other end 13 miles away, he said: “Please speak a little more slowly.”

Accident report



Accident insurance claim forms ask for a brief statement about how the accident happened. The combination of the finger pointing instinct and the small spaces provided on the forms can lead to some curiously phrased explanations.

  • “A pedestrian hit me and went under my car.”
  • “The other car collided with mine without giving warning of its intention.”
  • “I had been learning to drive with power steering. I turned the wheel to what I thought was enough and found myself in a different direction going the opposite way.”
  • “Coming home, I drove into the wrong house and collided with a tree I don’t have.”
  • “I thought my window was down; but found it was up when I put my hand through it.”
  • “No one was to blame for the accident, but it never would have happened if the other driver had been alert.”
  • “The pedestrian had no idea which direction to go, so I ran over him.”
  • “I saw the slow-moving, sad-faced old gentleman as he bounced off the hood of my car.”
  • “I had been driving for 40 years when I fell asleep at the wheel and had an accident.”
  • “I was taking my canary to the hospital. It got loose in the car and flew out the window. The next thing I saw was his rear end, and there was a crash.”
  • “I was backing my car out of the driveway in the usual manner when it was struck by the other car in the same place where it had been struck several times before.”
  • “The indirect cause of this accident was a little guy in a small car with a big mouth.”
  • “The accident happened when the right door of a car came around the corner without giving a signal.”
  • “I was thrown from my car as it left the road. I was later found in a ditch by some stray cows.”
  • “I had been shopping for plants all day and was on my way home. As I reached an intersection, a hedge sprung up, obscuring my vision.”
  • “I was on the way to the doctor with rear end trouble when my universal joint gave way causing me to have an accident.”
  • “I was sure the old fellow would never make it to the other side of the road when I struck him.”
  • “I told the police that I was not injured, but on removing my hat, I found that I had a fractured skull.”
  • “My wench slipped, losing my balance, and I hurt my back.”
  • “I was unable to stop in time, and my car crashed into the other vehicle. The driver and passengers then left immediately for a vacation with injuries.”
  • “To avoid hitting the bumper of the car in front, I struck the pedestrian.”
  • “The accident occurred when I was attempting to bring my car out of a skid by steering it into the other vehicle.”
  • “When I could not avoid a collision, I stepped on the gas and crashed into the other car.”
  • “I collided with a stationary truck coming the other way.”
  • “In my attempt to kill a fly, I drove into a telephone pole.”
  • “My car was legally parked as it backed into the other vehicle.”
  • “As I approached the intersection, a stop sign suddenly appeared in a place where no stop sign had ever appeared before. I was unable to stop in time to avoid the accident.”
  • “The telephone pole was approaching fast. I was attempting to swerve out of its path when it struck my front end.”
  • “A truck backed though my windshield and into my wife’s face.”
  • “I pulled away from the side of the road, glanced at my mother-in-law, and headed over the embankment.”
  • “The guy was all over the road. I had to swerve a number of times before I hit him.”
  • “An invisible car came out of nowhere, struck my vehicle, and vanished.”

    The history of TP

    A brief history of toilet paper.

    What did people use before toilet paper?
    Well, just use your imagination: grass, leaves, fur, mussell shells, corncobs. The ancient Greeks used stones and pieces of clay; ancient Romans used sponges on the ends of sticks, kept in jugs filled with salty water. Mideasterners commonly used the left hand, which is supposedly still considered unclean in the Arabian region.

    "Official" toilet paper - that is, paper which was produced specifically for the purpose - dates back at least to the late 14th Century, when Chinese emperors ordered it in 2-foot x 3-foot sheets.

    Corncobs and pages torn from newspapers and magazines were commonly used in the early American West. The Sears catalogue was well-known in this context, and even produced such humorous spinoffs as the "Rears and Sorebutt" catalogue. The Farmer's Almanac had a hole in it so it could be hung on a hook and the pages torn off easily.

    Joseph C. Gayetty of New York started producing the first packaged toilet paper in the U.S. in 1857. It consisted of pre-moistened flat sheets medicated with aloe and was named "Gayetty’s Medicated Paper". Gayetty's name was printed on every sheet.

    Rolled and perforated toilet paper as we're familiar with today was invented around 1880. Various sources attribute it to the Albany Perforated Wrapping (A.P.W.) Paper Company in 1877, and to the Scott Paper company in 1879 or 1890.

    In 1935, Northern Tissue advertised "splinter-free" toilet paper. Yep, you read that right; early paper production techniques sometimes left splinters embedded in the paper. And you thought you had it tough!

    In 1942, St. Andrew's Paper Mill in Great Britain introduced two-ply toilet paper.

    America experienced its first toilet paper shortage in 1973.

    And in case your wondering how to put your TP on a roller.
    51% have it hanging over the top
    24% have it hanging under

    Those guys were the suckiest bunch of sucks that ever sucked.

    Extended warranty? How can I lose?

    When I first heard that Marge was joining the police academy, I thought it would be fun and zany, you know like that movie... "Spaceballs". But instead it was dark and disturbing, like that movie "Police Academy".

    I think Mr. Smithers picked me for my motivational skills. Everyone always says they have to work twice as hard when I'm around!

    Son, when you participate in sporting events - it's not whether you win or lose, it's how drunk you get.

    Marge, it takes two to lie. One to lie, and one to listen.

    Just because I don't care doesn't mean I don't understand!

    I'm trying to fix your mother's camera. Easy, easy - Hmmm. I think I need a bigger drill.

    You tried your best and you failed miserably. The lesson is 'never try'.

    Oh, everything's too damned expensive these days. Like this Bible. It cost 15 bucks! And talk about a preachy book! Everybody's a sinner! Except this guy.

    God bless those pagans.

    Don't let Krusty's death get you down, boy. People die all the time, just like that. Why, you could wake up dead tomorrow! Well, good night!

    Chuck it, Part 9

    If Chuck Norris were a calendar, every month would be named Chucktober, and every day he'd kick your ass.

    If paper beats rock, rock beats scissors, and scissors beats paper, what beats all 3 at the same time? Answer: Chuck Norris.

    If Superman and The Flash were to race to the edge of space you know who would win? Chuck Norris.

    If you ask Chuck Norris what time it is, he always says, "Two seconds 'til." After you ask, "Two seconds 'til what?" he roundhouse kicks you in the face.

    If you can see Chuck Norris, he can see you. If you can't see Chuck Norris you may be only seconds away from death.

    If you Google search "Chuck Norris getting his ass kicked" you will generate zero results. It just doesn't happen.

    If you have five dollars and Chuck Norris has five dollars, Chuck Norris has more money than you.

    If you rearrange the letters in "Chuck Norris", they also spell "Crush Rock In". The words "with his fists" are understood.

    If you spell Chuck Norris in Scrabble, you win. Forever.

    If you want a list of Chuck Norris’ enemies, just check the extinct species list.

    If you were somehow able to land a punch on Chuck Norris your entire arm would shatter upon impact. This is only in theory, since, come on, who in their right mind would try this?!

    If, by some incredible space-time paradox, Chuck Norris would ever fight himself, he'd win. Period.

    In a fight between Batman and Darth Vader, the winner would be Chuck Norris.

    In fine print on the last page of the Guinness Book of World Records it notes that all world records are held by Chuck Norris, and those listed in the book are simply the closest anyone else has ever gotten.

    Ironically, Chuck Norris’ hidden talent is invisibility.

    It is believed dinosaurs are extinct due to a giant meteor. That's true if you want to call Chuck Norris a giant meteor.

    It is scientifically impossible for Chuck Norris to have had a mortal father. The most popular theory is that he went back in time and fathered himself.

    It takes Chuck Norris 20 minutes to watch 60 Minutes.

    Jean-Claude Van Damme once kicked Chuck Norris' ass. He was then awakened from his dream by a roundhouse kick to the face.

    Kryptonite has been found to contain trace elements of Chuck Norris roundhouse kicks to the face. Norris roundhouse kicks to the face. This is why it is so deadly to Superman.

    Little Miss Muffet sat on her tuffet, until Chuck Norris roundhouse kicked her into a glacier.

    Paper Money, who knew?

    The U.S. Department of the Treasury first issued paper U.S. currency in 1862 to make up for the shortage of coins and to finance the Civil War.

    There was a shortage of coins because people had started hoarding them; the uncertainty caused by the war had made the value of items fluctuate drastically. Because coins were made of gold and silver their value didn't change much, so people wanted to hang onto them rather than buy items that might lose their value.

    The first paper notes were printed in denominations of 1 cent, 5 cents, 25 cents, and 50 cents.

    A $1 bill lasts 18 months; $5 bill, two years; $10 bill, three years; $20 bill, four years; and $50 and $100 bills, nine years.

    How much does $1 million weigh? There are 490 notes in a pound, if you used $1 bills it would weigh 2,040.8 pounds, but if you used $100 bills it would weigh only 20.4 pounds.

    The Bureau of Engraving and Printing produces 38 million notes a day with a face value of approximately $541 million.

    That doesn't mean there is $541 million more money circulating today than there was yesterday, though, because 95% of the notes printed each year are used to replace notes already in circulation.

    There were more than 10 billion pennies made in 1998. The actual number of coins produced, by denomination, was as follows: pennies, 10,257,400,000; nickels, 1,323,672,000; dimes, 2,335,300,000; quarters, 1,867,400,000; half-dollars, 30,710,000.

    Almost half, 48 percent, of the notes printed by the Bureau of Engraving and Printing are $1 notes.

    Our present currency measures 2.61 inches wide by 6.14 inches long, and the thickness is 0.0043 inches. Larger sized notes in circulation before 1929 measured 3.125 inches by 7.4218 inches.

    Currency paper is composed of 25 percent linen and 75 percent cotton. Red and blue synthetic fibers of various lengths are distributed evenly throughout the paper. Before World War I these fibers were made of silk.

    Martha Washington is the only woman whose portrait has appeared on a U.S. currency note. It appeared on the face of the $1 Silver Certificate of 1886 and 1891, and the back of the $1 Silver Certificate of 1896.

    The hands of the clock in the steeple of Independence Hall on the back of a $100 note are set at approximately 4:10.

    Fingernails grow nearly 4 times faster than toenails.

    The average person laughs 15 times a day.

    Mom's Rule


    * Mothers only offer advice on two occasions: when you want it and when you don't..
    * A mother's love is a better cure than chicken soup, but chicken soup is cheaper.
    * Your mother is the only person that knows more about you than you know about yourself.
    * Any time you are unable to solve a problem, ask your mother. She probably won't know either, but she will fake it.
    * The more you try to stay on your mother's good side the harder it will be to figure out which side this is.
    * The nicer a mother is, the greater the probability that her kids are rotten.
    * If you can't remember whether or not you called your mother, you didn't.
    * The motherly advice you ignore will always turn out to be the best advice she ever gave you.
    * If you forget, mom will remind you of all your mistakes so you don't repeat them.
    * Anything you do can be criticized by your mother - even doing nothing.
    * Never criticize your mother's cooking if you expect to get any more of it.
    * If you think you have any secrets from your mother, remember who has changed your diapers.
    * You can't "out mother" your mother. Don't even try.
    * Never lie to your mother. And if you do, never think you got away with it.
    * The older you are, the more you feel like a child around your mother.
    * All mother's have a "How To" manual. That's because they wrote the book.
    * Mother's way is best. If you don't believe it, ask her.
    * Everything is a good idea till you mother finds out and tells you why it isn't.
    * When you are broke, ask mom for a loan. She will help you remember what you wasted all your money on.
    * The more expensive the gift you give your mother, the longer she will "save" it before she uses it.
    * No matter how wrong you are, your mother will not hold it against you. She may remind you a number of times, but she will not hold it against you.
    * No matter how much you eat, you can never get so fat that mother will not offer you more food.
    * If a mother does not have an item, she will have the recipe or the directions.
    * Accomplishments are made possible by your mother - failures are your own fault.
    * Never forget who rocked you as a baby. That's something else you will never be able to repay her for.
    * Mother can always tell you a better way to do something after you've already done it.
    * The longer it's been since you cleaned house, the more likely it is that mother will visit.
    * No matter how small your mom is, she will always be bigger than you are.
    * If you do it yourself, mom could have done it better. If mom does it, you should have done it yourself.
    * The only thing more accurate than a mother's advice is her memory of the times you didn't take it.
    * The funnier the joke is, the more likely mom will think it is dirty.
    * Never tell your mother you have nothing to do. She can always find something.
    * If the job of a mother is going smoothly, she thinks she isn't doing it well.
    * There are always two sides to a story - the way it really happened and the way mother remembers it.
    * Mothers always "know." We don't know how - they just do.
