(this isn't intended to offend anyone)

Bizarre useless trivia

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. (OMG...!)

A pig's orgasm lasts 30 minutes. ( Holy Cow !!!)

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 an hour. (Do not 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...can you imagine??)

The catfish has over 27,000 taste buds. (What can be so tasty on the bottom of the 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. (No Comment)

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

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

A cat's urine glows under a blacklight. (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. (Who knew...? Who cares!)

(30 Minutes!!!!!!!)

Humans and dolphins are the only species that have sex for pleasure. (What about the pig?)
So much Fabric, so little time.

I read in New Scientist that a survey in Australia reported that on average Aussies fart 15 times a day with an 3 on a 1-10 scale for aroma. What's the matter with these people? Don't they have gut flora? I can manage that by coffee time!
