ROFL, I love these posts. Hillarous, man.

Did you know that:

A pound of nails actually does weigh more than a pound of feathers, because when you carry it, the nails poke you and your brain confuses the pokiness for heaviness.

If a salsa does not feature a man with a sombrero taking a siesta in either its advertising, labeling, or executive staff, then it is not a top salsa. And it never will be.

Recent extensive studies reveal that crotch-rubbing is a powerful aphrodisiac.

On a good day, a full-grown, active, red-breasted robin can excrete up to 40,000 pounds of birdseed, five cocker spaniels, four books of postage stamps, thirty-seven Samurai swords, my tool box, two miles of telephone cable, and nine identical full-grown, active, red-breasted robins. And some bird crap too.

The most common answer provided to questions in the short-answer section of Chiropractic School finals is: “Grab onto the head, bend it hard and crazy, and hope for the best.”

The average lifespan for a puppy is 8 months. Then it turns into a dog.

Excellent ones! The only one of those I knew was the one about salsa. That's a mistake I'll never make again. They finally got the blood cleaned up last week. But I digress.

More nuggets of wisdom:

A study conducted by the Small-Time Crooks Trade Association reveals that April is the best month in which to conduct a mugging, but domestic assaults are best put off until July.

Any time a Staples store runs out of staples, it is legally required to close its doors.

Mixed with Splenda, Hawaiian Punch makes an excellent gasoline additive- but only the blue kind.

There is no such thing as a black and white movie. All the movies that appear black and white to us were actually filmed in color- it was just that the WORLD was in black and white back then.

Spam was invented in 1936 by Robert "Mystery Meat" Spimonti as a paperweight, which remains its most common use.

Baby experts project that in 2015, the most popular names for baby boys and girls will be Bounce-Bounce and The Claw, respectively.

Most lemurs can only get drunk on grape

That sounds vaugely familiar... Wasn't that what Calvin's dad told him?? I always loved Calvin's dad's wisdom. Esp the one about the midget that works behind the ATM machine. "Ohhh. Just like the little guy who lives our garage and moves the door up and down!" /paraphrasing as I haven't read C&H since high school.

"Bounce-Bounce and The Claw," eh? What was it that I said I was going to name my kids again? Lanolin and Aloe?

When Calvin asked why old paintings were in color, his dad's explanation was that "most artists were insane". My favorite one was when Calvin asked his dad how they determine the load limit for bridges, he said that they drive bigger and bigger trucks over the bridge until it breaks, then they weight the last truck and rebuild the bridge ( ... )
