To get most the wrinkles out of a shirt without ironing it (you lazy bastard) hang it on the end of the shower curtain (away from the water so it doesn't get wet) and take a long hot/steamy shower.. the steam should help get most the wrinkles out!

Dolphins can swim and sleep at the same time.

The longest name of a city in the world is Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwyll-Llantsysiliogogogoch, Wales

On average, ever glass of London tap water has passed through the bladders of 9 other people.

Before turning to a lifestyle of tyrannical war-mongering, Genghis Khan was a goatherd. He would later kill his brother in an argument over a fish.

The man considered the worst ever english-speaking published poet was William McGonagall. Ironically, his calling card proclaimed "W.M McGONAGALL: Lyrics Inditer and Reciter, Poetry Promptly Executed."

the artist Piero Manzoni was the sole exponent of the art movement arte povera, where he exhibited cans of his own excrement.

Arthur Conan Doyle used Cocaine. So did his creation, Sherlock Holmes.

Plato believed pop music led to low morals.

Mary, Queen of Scots, was bald.

King Edward II was executed by having a red-hot poker thrust up his rectum. This was considered a very clever execution, considering his crime: He pissed off the noblety by being flagrantly gay.

King Richard I (The Lionhearted) couldn't speak English, and spent less than 2 years in England during his whole reign.

During the First Crusade, a band of desperate religious hysterics marched behind a goose which they believed was filled with the Holy Spirit.

In striking irony, On July 4, 1776, King George III wrote "Nothing of importance happened today." in his diary.

There are about 1 million parasects living in our body.

Parasects make up more than half of earth's living animals.

The clit has twice as many nerve fibers as the penis.

I've tried the thing with returning Nike shoes. They just sent them back to me and said there was nothing they could do.

Maybe mine weren't in that bad of condition though :confused:

If you are caught in a riptide it is best to swim parallel to the shore...

The magic word 'Abracadabra' was originally intended for the specific purpose of curing hay fever.

Here's one for ya:

Adolf Hitler was one of the people that was responsible in the creation of the Volkswagen Beetle. He came up with the idea of producing a car that was cheap enough for the average German working man to afford.

bparker805 03-14-2004 04:08 PM

I dont know if this is acurate or not, but I'll throw it out there anyway. I heard that Hitler 1) had syphilus. 2) only had one nut. 3) was possibly gay, and 4) had a flatulence issue.

The human body generates enough heat in one day to melt 24 gallons of ice. (thanks, pop-up video...)

Texas is the only state that permits residents to cast absentee ballots from space. The first to exercise this right to vote while in orbit was astronaut David Wolf, who cast his vote for Houston mayor via e-mail from the Russian space station Mir in November 1997.

Nikes sends me back a new pair of shoes that is the closest available style that I had originally purchased. The only cost to you is shipping.
I actually heard this is an urban myth. On that MTV show "The Big Urban Myth Show" they had a guy from Nike come on and say that Nike does not do this and that it's just a big huge urban myth and they don't know how it got started.

Are you sure you do this, or you just HEARD you could do it?

The united steates spends more money on its military then the next 12nations combined.

A study by Lifestyles Condom Co. shows that the average length of a American male erect sex organ is 5.877 inches — which might comfort men who previously thought they were less than average.

Thank god for being above average!!!

Zebras' stripes are like human fingerprints - no two patterns are alike.

I just found out that in the movie "Conan The Barbarian", Conan only says a total of five words to Valeria (Conan's love interest). That's pimp!

Baby Dolphins have moustaches.

A fully grown blue whale can weigh as much as 537,432 (plus or minus a couple hundred) average sized guinea pigs.

Aardvarks are not anteaters, but belong to an order all their own, that is most closely related to hoofed mammals
and cetaceans. (Anteaters are more closely related to carnivores.)

The closest relatives to the elephants are hyraxes, which are about the size of a large guinea pig.

The German word for nipple literally means "breast wart". And they say that the Germans are an unromantic people. ;)

Traditional Peruvian beer is made with a yeast cultured from the faeces of unweaned infants. I guess horespiss ain't so bad.

The word for the beverage Punch, is from Hindi <i>panch(a)</i> meaning 5, because, at the time of the Raj, the British thought that the perfect punch had 5 ingredients in it (what hey are I don not know.) It's the same root word as in Punjab (5 rivers.) Other Hindi words in English include jodhpurs, dungarees, thug, and pajamas.

Crocodilians have incredible strenght in closing their jaws, but not much in opening them. In fact, if you can keep them from shaking your hand off, you can hold a croc's jaws closed with one hand (of course, given the likely outcome if the croc did shake it off, you'd be a fool to use less than two.)

Sharks don't have scales. Their skin is covered with tiny teeth. It used to be used as sandpaper before carborundum grit sandpaper was mass produced.

Imperial Romans used to wipe their fundaments after defacating with a sponge on a stick.

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

stewardess is the longest word you can type only using your left hand.

also, at least 3 people are trying that our right now...
