mrmackc Posted June 26, 2019 Report Share Posted June 26, 2019 (edited) ........But here it is anyway 1. A rat can last longer without water than a camel. 2. Your stomach has to produce a new layer of mucus every two weeks or it will digest itself. 3. The dot over the letter "i" is called a tittle. 4. A raisin dropped in a glass of fresh champagne will bounce up and down continuously from the bottom of the glass to the top. 5. A female ferret will die if it goes into heat and cannot find a mate. 6. A duck's quack doesn't echo. No one knows why. 7. A 2 X 4 is really 1-1/2" by 3-1/2". 8. During the chariot scene in "Ben Hur," a small red car can be seen in the distance (and Heston's wearing a watch). 9. On average, 12 newborns will be given to the wrong parents daily! (That explains a few mysteries…) 10. Donald Duck comics were banned from Finland because he doesn't wear pants. 11 Because metal was scarce, the Oscars given out during World War II were made of wood 12. The number of possible ways of playing the first four moves per side in a game of chess is 318,979,564,000. 13. There are no words in the dictionary that rhyme with orange, purple and silver. 14 The name Wendy was made up for the book Peter Pan. There was never a recorded Wendy before. 15. The very first bomb dropped by the Allies on Berlin in World War II killed the only elephant in the Berlin Zoo. 16. If one places a tiny amount of liquor on a scorpion, it will instantly go mad and sting itself to death. (Who was the sadist who discovered this?) 17. Bruce Lee was so fast that they actually had to s-l-o-w film down so you could see his moves. That's the opposite of the norm. 18. The first CD pressed in the US was Bruce Springsteen's "Born in the USA” 19. The original name for butterfly was “flutterby.” 20. The phrase "rule of thumb" is derived from an old English law which stated that you couldn't beat your wife with anything wider than your thumb. 21. The first product Motorola started to develop was a record player for automobiles. At that time, the most known player on the market was Victrola, so they called themselves Motorola. 22. Roses may be red, but violets are indeed violet. 23 By raising your legs slowly and lying on your back, you cannot sink into quicksand. 24. Celery has negative calories. It takes more calories to eat a piece of celery than the celery has in it to begin with. 25. Charlie Chaplin once won third prize in a Charlie Chaplin look-alike contest. 26. Chewing gum while peeling onions will keep you from crying. 27. Sherlock Holmes NEVER said, "Elementary, my dear Watson." 28. An old law in Bellingham, Washington, made it illegal for a woman to take more than three steps backwards while dancing! 29. The glue on Israeli postage is certified kosher. 30. The Guinness Book of Records holds the record for being the book most often stolen from public libraries. 31. Astronauts are not allowed to eat beans before they go into space because passing wind in a spacesuit damages them. 32. Bats always turn left when exiting a cave! SEE? NOW WASN'T THAT CALMING AND NICE FOR A CHANGE? … not to mention how much smarter you've now become. Edited June 27, 2019 by mrmackc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

392heminut Posted June 28, 2019 Report Share Posted June 28, 2019 #16 sounds interesting! Scorpions aren't much of a problem here in New Mexico but from what my son and daughter tell me, they are in Tucson and Casa Grande. I guess when I move to Arizona I should keep a bottle of cheap liquor around to mess with the scorpions! My wife says I'm a bug sadist, I keep a can of Black Flag around to spray any black widows I come across. I would rather spray them and watch them suffer as they die than just step on them! I personally don't think that's sadistic, just good clean fun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmackc Posted June 28, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 28, 2019 It ain't sadistic unless you pull their 8 little legs off slowly one by one then poke their eyes out with a red hot needle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I once did a R.A. materials underground storage inspection in Artesia, N.M. didn't find any scorpions but 40 or 50 big vinegar rhones were under a 4'x4' cellar door, that look just like a scorpion except they are a dark maroon in color, a local said they don't sting like a scorpion, but I didn't chance it that he was blowing smoke , Poured a 5 gallon bucket of diesel on the critters, they turned all their ugly asses over and died.

Bwahahahaha!!! Those things are definitely ugly as hell but he was right, they don't sting or bite. They are basically harmless for as nasty as they look. The other really nasty looking bug we have is called a 'child of the earth' or 'el nino de la tierra' south of the border. They aren't venomous but do have a painful bite.

I still vividly remember the first time I saw one of those things, it was about 12" from my nose! I was under a friend's 66 GMC pickup at night, stabbing the transmission. I got the damn thing up into the bellhousing and turned my head to look for a bolt and that ugly SOB was RIGHT THERE! My buddy said never in his life had he seen someone come out from under a vehicle so fast! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These ferret women are able to find a horney man to "mate" with easier than a man can find a "mate" unless he visits old lady thumb and her 4 sisters , and didn't your mom tell you that if you keep doing that you will go blind? Have you made arrangements for a seeing eye dog? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
