Americans consumed over 3.1 billion pounds of chocolate in 2001, which is almost half of the total world's production.

Aztec emperor Montezuma drank 50 golden goblets of hot chocolate every day. It was thick, dyed red and flavored with chili peppers.

Correction

In the late 19th century, millions of human mummies were used as fuel for locomotives in Egypt where wood and coal was scarce, but mummies were plentiful.

Cats have better memories than dogs. Tests conducted by the University of Michigan concluded that while a dogs memory lasts no more than 5 minutes, a cat's can last as long as 16 hours - exceeding even that of monkeys and orangutans.

Don't cry, abbey. I found out they live much longer!! Mayflies don't last much past a day, however....

Link to the British Dragonfly Society! (there's a society for almost everything!)Dragonflies :wah:

How long do Dragonflies live? Is it true that they only live for one day?

At the shortest, a dragonfly's life-cycle from egg to death of adult is about 6 months. Some of the larger dragonflies take 6 or 7 years! Most of this time is spent in the larval form, beneath the water surface, catching other invertebrates. The small damselflies live for a couple of weeks as free-flying adults. The larger dragonflies can live for 4 months in their flying stage. In Britain, lucky Damsels seldom go more than two weeks and Dragons more than two months. Most Damsels rarely go more than a week, and Dragons two or three weeks. They die from accidents and predation, and large numbers from starvation - in poor weather neither they nor their prey can fly.

No insect has a lifespan of only one day - even mayflies (not closely related to dragonflies) live for several months underwater as larvae before emerging as winged adults. Adult mayflies may only live for a day or so as they are dedicated "breeding machines". They cannot feed as adults as (most) don't have any functional mouthparts.

Thanks Paul & Turbs, i feel much better now

here's some really stupid shiite...

take a piece of string, wrap it around your thumb 2 times. that is the same distance as once around your wrist.

take another piece of string, go 2 times around your wrist, that is almost exactly once around your neck. just a smidge short.

Hold your arms out to the sides, making a giant letter"T"

the distance from the tip of your middle finger to middle finger is the Exact same as your height.

the distance from the bottom of your palm to the middle of you elbow "pit" is the same distance as the tip of your big toe to the back of your heel.

something really weird, for every external inch of "manhood" there is an equal and opposite internal inch.

i have a small trace of french indian blood in my right big toe.

Benjamin Franklin was the first person to kite surf on water.

He didn't really surf, he just laid on his back and the kite pulled him across the water.

(Does anyone else think he had some kind of fetish with kites?)

BIKINI

The island of Bikini, in the Pacific Ocean was destroyed in 1946 when the US military tested nuclear bombs in the area. That summer, in France, designers Jacques Helm and Louis Reard premiered a new swimsuit. The effect this daring two piece costume had on the male psyche was said to resemble the nuclear explosion.
