This was an e-mail sent to me. {it had animated illustrations with each one, but I don't feel like copying and coding them into this so you're just going to get the information} I find this funny and interesting:
~ The liquid inside young coconuts
can be used as a substitute for
Blood plasma.
~ No piece of paper can be folded in half
more than seven (7) times.
~ Donkeys kill more people annually
than plane crashes.
~ You burn more calories sleeping
than you do watching television.
~ Oak trees do not produce acorns
until they are fifty (50) years of age or older.
~ The first product to have a bar code
was Wrigley's gum.
~ The King of Hearts is the only king
WITHOUT A MUSTACHE
~ American Airlines saved $40,000 in 1987
by eliminating one (1) olive

~Venus is the only planet that rotates clockwise.
(Since Venus is normally associated with women,
what does this tell you!)
~ Apples, not caffeine,
are more efficient at waking you up in the morning.
~ Most dust particles in your house are made from
DEAD SKIN!
~ The first owner of the Marlboro Company
died of lung cancer.
So did the first " Marlboro Man."

IN VINEGAR!
Why would someone try this?
~ The three most valuable brand names on earth:
Marlboro, Coca Cola, and Budweiser, in that order.
~ It is possible to lead a cow upstairs...
but, not downstairs.
This I would really like to know how someone knows. Who takes a cow upstairs. Um........nevermind, I don't want to know.
~ A duck's quack doesn't echo,
and no one knows why.
~ Dentists have recommended that a toothbrush
be kept at least six (6) feet away from
a toilet to avoid airborne particles
resulting from the flush.
(I keep my toothbrush in the living room now!)
And the best for last.....
~ Turtles can breathe through their butts.
(I know some people like that, don't YOU?)
