>>If you yelled for 8 years, 7 months and 6 days you would have
>>produced enough sound energy to heat one cup of coffee. (Hardly

>>produced to create the energy of an atomic bomb. (Now that's more
>>like it!)
>>
>>The human heart creates enough pressure when it pumps

>>
>>Banging your head against a wall uses 150 calories an hour. (Do
>>not try this at home. Maybe at work.)

>>would be a good thing...................)
>>
>>A cat's urine glows under a black light. (I wonder who was paid to
>>figure that out?)

>>
>>Polar bears are left-handed. (If they switch, they'll live a lot
>>longer.)
