Every month I have to use certain womens products. And on the back of this package is a backing strip you peel off so you can use the item. Anyway, on the strip it has the 'odd spot', with a few random facts. Since it's this time of the month, I will share some:* 23% of all photocopier fault are caused by people sitting on them and photocopying their buttox. * No piece of paper can be folded in half more than 7 times. * The average human body makes enough carbon for 900 pencils. * Althaiophobia is a fear of marshmellows. * Our eyes are always the same from birth, but our nose and ears never stop growing. * On average, people fear spiders more than death. * A snail can sleep for 3 years.

San Diego has been raining like crazy lately which is really unusual. Its known to never rain here. People are starting to get scared. Especially since san diegans are really crappy drivers in the rain. Oh this is from the back of my cereal box... Puffins (bird relative) make loud growling sounds which sound like a muffled chainsaw. haha that sounds scary coming from a bird! is that random enough for ya IP: Logged |

any Bridget Jones Diary fans out there? Hugh Grant (Sept. 09, 1960) is one day older than Colin Firth (Sept. 10, 1960) How about the old TV series Family Ties (w/Michael J Fox)? The Mom (Meridith Baxter) and dad (Michael Gross) were born on the same day June 21, 1947 Marlon Brando and Doris Day share the same b-day also April 3, 1924 IP: Logged |

Hey Sunchild, we don't have that brand here...would you mind...nevermind!Do you ever see Lady Gouldian Finches there? I have some as pets, but you actually live where they are from! Cool! Kangaroos?

The dot on the i,yeah that lil' guy on top has a name.....tittle!The "spot" on the 7-Up comes from its inventor who had red eyes. He was an albino. On average, 12 newborns will be given to the wrong parents daily.....SCARY!!!! Playing cards were issued to British pilots in WWII. If captured, they could be soaked in water and unfolded to reveal a map for escape. Donald Duck comics were banned from Finland because he doesn't wear pants. American Airlines saved $40,000 in 1987 by eliminating one olive from each salad served in First Class.......now the Indian airlines is doing it by eliminating yogurt.. Because metal was scarce, the Oscars given out during World War II were made of wood. There are no clocks in Las Vegas gambling casinos The name Wendy was made up for the book Peter Pan. There was never a recorded Wendy before. The very first bomb dropped by the Allies on Berlin in World War II killed the only elephant in the Berlin Zoo If one places a tiny amount of liquor on a scorpion, it will instantly go mad and sting itself to death. Bruce Lee was so fast that they actually had to s-l-o-w film down so you could see his moves. That's the opposite of the norm. The first CD pressed in the US was Bruce Springsteen's "Born in the USA". The mask used by Michael Myers in the original "Halloween" was actually a Captain Kirk mask painted white. The original name for butterfly was flutterby. The phrase "rule of thumb" is derived from an old English law which stated that you couldn't beat your wife with anything wider than your thumb... The electric chair was invented by a dentist....COOL! Astronauts are not allowed to eat beans before they go into space because passing wind in a spacesuit damages them.

Hot_Ice I liked that one about "Wendy"Here are some more: A duck's quack doesn't echo. No one knows why. Every person has a unique tongue print. The glue on Israeli postage stamps is certified kosher. http://www.superkids.com/aweb/pages/humor/121201.sht

Hi WaterNymph, I can give some very useful mathematical and harmonics analysis of your birthmark. So when do I get to see it ?
