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.

(O.M.G.!)


A pig's orgasm lasts 30 minutes.

(In my next life, I want to be a pig.)


A cockroach will live nine days without its head before it starves to death. (Creepy.)

(I'm still not over the pig.)

(Don't try this at home, maybe try 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.. Lucky pig! Can you imagine?)


The catfish has over 27,000 taste buds.

(What could be so tasty on the bottom of a 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.(Hmmmmmm......)

(Okay, so that would be a good thing.)


A cat's urine glows under a black light.

(I wonder who was paid to figure that out?)

The threads were slow.

Is this in the wrong forum?

not sure, I don't think so, but give it a few - someone will make it a mission to try and prove me wrong

No matter what your going to the coffee house...

Butterflies taste with their feet.

(Something I always wanted to know)

Actually knew that one and I think it's cool..I just dig butterflies.

But...but...you're never wrong, Fran.

now you tell me

Uh-oh. I don't drink coffee.

Did you know that the cockroach can live without its head for an entire week? This six-legged critter can live without food for an entire month and hold its breath for forty minutes if necessary. Even if you cut off its head, it would still run around the house for about a week before dying of thirst because its brain is not in its head. It’s scattered throughout its body. It is popularly suggested that cockroaches will "inherit the earth" if humanity destroys itself in a nuclear war. Cockroaches do indeed have a much higher radiation resistance than vertebrates, with the lethal dose perhaps 6 to 15 times that for humans. Tough little critters.

I didn't know that. I like butterflies too. I especially like seeing Monarch butterflies in my garden.

just thought of the pig

Wow, I wasn't aware that they could do that. Hold their breath for forty minutes?! That just isn't fair! They should be able to die faster. Yep, they'll be here after we're gone.

Oink oink!!!

Lucky pig.

Cats cannot taste anything sweet, there are no sweetness receptors in their taste buds.

Dogs can discriminate odors at concentrations nearly 100 million times lower than humans can. Keen schnozolas on those pups.

The sailfish is the world's fastest fish. It can swim up to 68 mph in the water.

I just love butterflies.
