I think it's a known fact that you can leave a twinkie on a fencepost for 12 years and it'll still be as fresh as the day you bought it.

Thank you for those incredible facts DD!!! Especially the one about the honey!!! Seriously. I have a huge jar of honey that I've had forever and wasn't sure what to do with it. Guess I'll eat it.

My household is not average - I only have one type of cereal and never more than 2 boxes of it.

I have piles of cereal boxes in my pantry after trying to get the kid to try something different now and then, or buying specific brands for this little friend or that little visitor! I give them away whenever I can.

-The average household has 4 boxes of cereal at all times.
Ha! You don't have my husband in the house. He goes through cereal like there's no tomorrow. I'd settle for 2 1/2 boxes and think we were overstocked.

The average person says 5,000 words in one day.
Can you imagine the poor grad students that had to listen to a million conversations 24/7 before they tabulated that number of words? And you know they were probably only getting a meager stipend and had to listen to more drivel than you could count before coming up with the profound statement that 5,000 is the golden number!

Jellyfish are 95% water.
The other 5% is the part that hurts you.

-There are 293 ways to make change for one dollar.
Buddy, can you spare a dime?

By age 65, an average person has seen two million commercials.
Not now! We have the power to fast forward!

Our cat ate grasshoppers and crickets but she didn't like the legs. We'd find our basement littered with legs. I wonder if toads are not so picky?

The only food that never ever spoils is honey.
Thank you DD for this little nugget. I smuggled honey from foreign parts a long time ago and I'm glad to know that even though it's mouldering in the back of the cabinet, it's still edible.

They showed up on a lawn in my neighborhood and a divorce almost happened.

AND did you know?

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

There are two credit cards for every person in the United States.

It is possible to lead a cow upstairs but not downstairs...:idontno:
