Hey Nina, and no problem.
It’s even cold in the house.. with the heating on, that’s how bad the weather is here. The snow disappeared for a day or so, and now it’s back. I’m not a huge fan of snow.. I’m like an old biddie, I’d rather stay tucked in bed all snug. =)
Thanks for answering my questions, I’ll check the song out now.
LOL very interesting facts. I figured women blink more than men. We always are blinking.
Excellent post!

I’m quite familiar with some of them but about the polar bears being left-handed, wow I didn’t know that! Haha it made me smile for some weird reason :p
Anyway hellooo to your new affies!
hmm, let’s see….
luckily, the U.S. has self-adhesive stamps, so no licking required. And I’ll be sure to by self-adhesive envelopes as well…
I already knew about the msdonald’s. I saw a documentary on the Travel channel once about all these other really cool mcdonald’s in the world. If I can find the link, I’ll be sure to share!
I think some brains, like that of Paris Hilton, are a little more than 80% water…
I am fascinated by the typerwriter fact!
I also knew about the yelling, as well as about the polar bears.
Um, I would rather itch uncontrollably for the rest of my life than rub my dog’s doodee on me o_O
Sony sucks at life, seriously. I’m not very happy lately, thanks to my beautiful, expensive digital camera just spontaneously stopped working one day (and it’s only 2 years old).
and I couldn’t stop laughing at the toilet one, hahaha! My mom actually broke a toilet in our house last week (she went to sit, but missed, and ended up falling and hitting her head on the bowl, cracking it, so water was leaking everywhere… she’s fine, but it was soooooooooo funny!!!)
Lol, your post made me laugh. Thanks for de-boring my day ^_^
*Right-handed people live, on average, nine years longer than left-handed people.
