315 entries in Webster's 1996 Dictionary were misspelled.



Dentists have recommended that a toothbrush be kept at least 6 feet away from a toilet to avoid airborne particles resulting from the flush.

Moose do not just cross at "Moose Crossings." There is no evidence that they can read, or even care.

Check out the Pictures here
baby kangaroo pictures - Google Image Search
In the 8th picture along the baby kangaroo at birth is no bigger then a jelly bean.
Now a lot of people, including Australians, think that the baby kangaroo is born directly into the pouch, Not true!
Birth takes place in the same manner as with all mammals. The Joey ( baby kangaroo) has to then climb the outside of the mothers body, locate the pouch and climb in. If that's not hard enough when you are no bigger then a jelly bean consider this. Should the baby fall to the ground during this climb the mother is incapable of picking it up and the baby is doomed.
How's that for a start in life?

You know what is random the fact that something the size of kangaroo gives birth to a jellybean weight and a 100 lb woman has a ten pound nightmare baby ...that my friends is random and sooooo very wrong.



This is esp for Zoobu

GIANT STUMPY

CONTRARY TO popular belief, not all lizards lay eggs. Some are viviparous, or give birth to live young. And when the shingle-back--also known as the stumpy lizard--delivers, it's a mother load. "Baby stumpies are very large," says biologist Suzy Munns at Adelaide University in Australia. "They're approximately 35 percent of the mother's body weight, which is very high in the animal world." In other words, if a human were to deliver as hefty a baby, "it would mean giving birth to a child the size of an average 6-year-old!"

More painful yet, unlike humans the pregnant stumpy's body doesn't expand to accommodate the developing young--baby just invades mom's body cavity (see X-rays, right). And the reptile (back-boned animal with scaly skin) can carry up to four babies at a time! Courageous?
The rest is all here:

There are people who have never tasted cornbread dressing.

A motion to adjourn is always in order.

The Nash was the first U.S. car to use reclining seats. I remember a Hudson (Hornet, I believe) convertbile around 1957 (but was probably a 1956 model) had reclining front seats.
