For Mary and anyone else who's ben having a rough time lately.
So, I know several people have been a little down lately. In my tradition, I present some fun stuff to take your mind off your troubles, even if it is only for a few moments.
Presenting...fun and useless facts. Because what's more fun than that on a bad day?
The two richest countries in the world are the US and Luxembourg.
A can of Spam is opened every 4 seconds.
Starfish don't have brains.
Everytime you lick a stamp, you consume 1/10 of a calorie.
There are twice as many left-handed men as women.
Walt Disney was afraid of mice.
In a deck of playing cards, the king of hearts is the only king without a mustache.
It is estimated that at any one time, 0.7% of the world's population is drunk.
A "jiffy" is an actual unit of time; 1/100 of a second
The main library at Indiana University sinks over an inch every year because the engineers did not account for the weight of all th3e books when it was built.
Tegestology is the collecting of beer coasters.
Tom Sawyer was the first story written on a typewriter.
And of course, the obligatory lawyer joke. Because what's comic relief without a lawyer joke?
A barber gave a haircut to a priest one day. The priest tried to pay for the haircut, but the barber refused, saying, "you do God's work." The next morning the barber found a dozen bibles at the door to his shop.
A policeman came to the barber for a haircut, and again the barber refused to pay, saying, "you protect the public." The next morning the barber found a dozen doughnuts at the door to his shop.
A lawyer came to the barber for a haircut, and again the barber refused payment, saying, "you serve the justice system." The next morning the barber found a dozen lawyers waiting for a free haircut.
And a blonde joke for good measure.
There were three blondes driving down a hill. Suddenly the girl driving realized that her brakes were gone. They all started screaming and telling themselves they were going to die. Then one girl noticed a sign. She Said, "Oh! Don't worry there's a stop sign down there!"
I hope I have helped make someone's day. :) It made mine looking all this up. lol
