I'm in a not so good mood tonight and decided I want your help to cheer me up. I have always loved useless knowledge. I want to hear all the dumb useless information that you may know. The human head weighs 8 lbs. but who cares? I do. Please tell me all the useless facts that you know.

My husband's head actually weighs 15 lbs. We weighed it once. Of course he can't see the scale, so I lied and told him it weighed 20 lbs... so that's what he thinks, lol. How awful am I? I once heard a penguin can jump 6 feet straight up. I thought that was rather interesting.

Well it's kind of a running joke. My husband does have a rather large head, and whenever he leans it on me, I tell ya the darn thing is heavy, and I pick on him for it. He says it's not that heavy, so we weighed it. It is heavy, lol.

Ok, here are some useless facts for ya. Beetles taste like apples, wasps like pine nuts, and worms like fried bacon. A cockroach can live several weeks with its head cut off. Right handed people live, on average, nine years longer than left-handed people. Your ribs move about 5 million times a year, everytime you breathe. The elephant is the only mammal that can't jump. Months that begin on a Sunday will always have a "Friday the 13th." Coca-Cola would be green if coloring weren’t added to it.

Beetles taste like apples, wasps like pine nuts, and worms like fried bacon. I won't ask how you know this....Yucky. Right handed people live, on average, nine years longer than left-handed people. I guess it's a good thing that I'm right handed and 7 1/2 years older then my left handed fiance then. [b] The elephant is the only mammal that can't jump.[/b] Someone else already said this one

It is said that beyond the Northern Polar Circle, the value of PI shrinks from 3.14 to 3.00, due to extremely low temperature. They call it Eskimo Pi.

A twit is a goldfish. Cats sleep up to 16 hours a day. An ostrich's eye is bigger than its brain. Christians really only started celebrating Christmas about 200 years ago. Up until then it had been mostly a pagan holiday, with no real conncection to Jesus' birth. Reindeer milk has more fat than cow milk.

An ostrich's eye is bigger than its brain. They say the smaller the brain the smarter you are....They must be really smart.

An orange rind was the birth control method used by women in roman times (used like a diaphram)
