You might wondering what’s so interesting about these FACTS?? Read along…

1. 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 seems worth it.)

2. If you farted consistently for 6 years and 9 months, enough gas is produced to create the energy of an atomic bomb.

(Now that’s more like it!)

3. The human heart creates enough pressure when it pumps out to the body to squirt blood 30 feet.

(O.M.G.!)

4. A pig’s orgasm lasts 30 minutes. (In my next life, I want to be a pig.)

5. A cockroach will live nine days without its head before it starves to death.

(Creepy…. I’m still not over the pig.)

6. Banging your head against a wall uses 150 calories a hour.

(Don’t try this at home, maybe at work)

7. The male praying mantis cannot copulate while its head is attached to its body. The female initiates sex by ripping the male’s head off.

(“Honey, I’m home. What the….?!”)

8. The flea can jump 350 times its body length. It’s like a human jumping the length of a football field.

(30 minutes..lucky pig! Can you imagine?)

9. The catfish has over 27,000 taste buds.

(What could be so tasty on the bottom of a pond?)

10. Some lions mate over 50 times a day.

(I still want to be a pig in my next life…quality over quantity)

11. Butterflies taste with their feet.

(Something I always wanted to know.)

12. The strongest muscle in the body is the tongue. (Hmmmmmm……)

13. Right-handed people live, on average, nine years longer than left-handed people.

(If you’re ambidextrous, do you split the difference?)

14. Elephants are the only animals that cannot jump.

(okay, so that would be a good thing)

15. A cat’s urine glows under a black light.

(I wonder who was paid to figure that out?)

16. An ostrich’s eye is bigger than its brain.

(I know some people like that.)

17. Starfish have no brains.

(I know some people like that too.)

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

19. Humans and dolphins are the only species that have sex for pleasure.

(WHAT ABOUT THAT PIG??)


So? Did you smile at lease once? Or even a small, tiny bit of chuckle? If not, then… blame the writer, whoever that is !! To be clear:
- I’m NOT the FINDER of the so-called-facts below, & I’m not sure how ‘true’ are they;
- I’m NOT the one who provides the feedbacks (pinkish words).

But I decided to share it with you all anyway, because it’s just simply Cracks Me Up!! I got this email from one of my best friends, the funny and devine Ms. K! And dear, I really miss our crazy talks, and I promise, next time I call you, we’ll have longer conversations, k?

Take care, folks!


10 Simple Sites To Kill Time !

Nothing to do online? Impossible!

Sure, we have Youtube, Google Earth (test it out with you iPod yet?), Online Movie Streaming, Chatting, Gaming… I would be amazed if you’re running out things to do on the web!

However, put those popular webpage aside, I tend to find something that’s new and amusing for me, and I did. So I came up with this 10 Simple Sites To Kill Time, just for you guys! It easily eats off my half, or nearly 1 hour’s time, and goes well with slow bandwidth too (I know somebody is smiling now). Want to be amused? Let’s save the best for last:
10. Turn Your Name Into A Face
Straight forward explanation from its URL. Just type in your name, and voila! Simple as that. Check out mine… pretty cool huh!

Coincidently, I was talking to a friend this morning about him overdosing caffeine! I should definitely force him to tryout this test. Easy enough. Just make sure you don’t spoil your mouse.

8. Photosoup
After you’ve proved yourself being caffeine-free, how about some word game? Search the hidden tags in the puzzle before runs out of time, with the photos shown (from Flickr) as clues. I used to play a lot of these games when I was little.. awww…
7. English Word Quiz

Too childish? How about this one? You ought to put on your thinking cap: 100 Most Common English Words you could think of, all in 5 minutes!! So you think you know all the vocabularies huh? How about just some simples ones? Try this one out! I’ve tried and was not impressed with my score. Sigh.. 6. Private Note

This reminds me of the secret note that self-destructed after secret agents read it in Mission Impossible or 007. Yup, it’s all about PRIVATE! So, wanna gossip about something? This private note lets you write whatever you wish, sent it as a link to your friend, and the note will self-destruct after viewed by the receiver! However, he/she would have the option to copy it, if they wanted to. Hmm.. sounds not so cool anymore huh?

5. SoundSnap
This is like a library for SOUNDS! Want a special sound effect, ring tones etc?? You can find them here, silly sounds, weird noises ! In MP3 and WAV format, ready to be downloaded, FOC. You can even upload yours if you like.

4. Sidetaker
This is like a court of justice. Got an issue you can’t resolve with your boyfriend? Best friends? Or your co-workers? Tell your story here, and let the people from all over the world, decide who’s right or wrong! No real names are required, just the story. Let’s see who should apologize first. I’m amazed there are quite many users there. To judge, or to be judged, up to you.

3. Want To Play With Spider??

I like this one! This site belongs to Tomas Eriksson, and he’s showing off some of his personal artwork. What amuses me is the spider flash that he created. Try to move your cursor with the spider. I could never imagine touching a tarantula in real life, so this site works well with me. You could move it, feed it.. anything you like. After you got bored, perhaps could try the Snake Trouble game, which I’m sure you will feel familiar with it. Moving along..


2. Make Me Babies!
You have NO IDEA how many times people asking me when I wanna have a baby! Alright, so I tried this game out. After signing up, you could try to make a baby with your friends, celebrities or your partner. I tried with my all time favourites: Keanu Reeves and Christian Bale. Obviously, dominant gene takes it all.

1. Baby Maker

Same function as no.9, BUT outtakes it! Why? Apart from having an extra option for Asians, it doesn’t require signing-ups. Save time, and suits everybody around the world. Finally I can test it out with my husband’s picture (after grumbling me pairing up with the Hollywood superstars).

See how adorable he/she is? Frankly, it didn’t state the gender, so… What do you think? a boy or a girl?

There you have it! Of course, these are just some simple ones. If you know any others, do share it with us ! Enjoy!
