Amaze your friends

[richardr]

So, we all want to have that witty one liner, the cool response , the insightful observation. Amaze your friends with some of these little known facts:

1.A duck's quack doesn't echo, and no one knows why.

2.Kermit the Frog is left-handed.

3The fingerprints of koala bears are virtually indistinguishable from those of humans, so much so that they could be confused at a crime scene

4Emus and kangaroos cannot walk backwards, and are on the Australian coat of arms for that reason.

5. All porcupines float in water

As you will agree, extremely useful information!

No they're not!

Hey, and I'm no bear neither

Some more amazing stuff to think about over the weekend ...

If you scream for 8 years, 7 months and 6 days, you would have produced enough energy to heat up a cup of coffee. (Is it worth it?)

If you fart for 6 years and 9 months you would have enough gas for an atomic bomb. (Definitely not worth it.)

The orgasm of a pig lasts 30 minutes! (I want to be a pig in my next life!)

If you knock your head against the wall you will have used 150 calories. (I’m still thinking about the pig)

A cockroach can survive 9 days without its head. (aaarrrgh)

Some lions mate up to 50 times a day. (I still prefer being a pig. Quality goes before quantity)

A butterfly can lick its own feet. (Now that had to be said.)

Elephants are the only animals that can’t jump. (It’s probably better that way)

A cat’s urine phosphoresces in the dark. (Who do we actually pay to find out these kind of things?)

The eye of an ostrich is bigger than its brain. (I know some people who have the same problem)

Sea stars do not have a brain. (I also know some people like that)

Polar bears are left-handed. (So what?)

Humans and dolphins are the only living creatures having sex out of fun. (Hey, what about the pig?)

Hey! Smile

Pigs seem to have a pretty good life.

Ok
but did you know that hedgehogs are the most homosexual creatures on the planet? - and giraffes do some fairly strange things too!

However, I think the Pig is in the lead at the moment!

Monkeys masturbate for fun.

I say that all research money currently devoted to establishing communication between humans and "higher" species such as gorillas and dolphins be immediately diverted to human-pig communication research.  If only these pigs could talk.

Cats have 37 muscles in each ear, yet can't move their jaws side to side.

Penguins bear the brunt of the vast majority of black-tie-and-suit anthropomorphic jokes by humans.

Fat Bob - I don't think humans do it for a different reason.

[maxthecat]

Baboons sometimes do it out of boredom.

You can hypnotize baby crocodilians by putting them on their backs and stroking their stomachs.  You can also force feed them with the eraser end of a pencil.  I've done both successfully.

Howler monkeys are the only species outside of a few really whacked-out humans known to engage in primal-scream therapy.
