Comparing the NFL, NCAA games to MLB is difficult as their games are on, weekends Monday and Thursday nights while MLB holds a number of games on weekdays Therefore attendance will be down

True, and the baseball schedule is much longer than the other major sports.

1) Most lipstick contains fish scales.

2) A category three hurricane releases more energy in ten minutes that all the world's nuclear weapons combined.

3) Lightning strikes the Earth 100 times every second.

4) If you sneeze too hard you can fracture a rib. If you try to suppress a sneeze you can rupture a blood vessel in your head or neck and die. If you keep your eyes open by force they can pop out.

5) Horses can't vomit. (How they know this is a wonder)

1) How long did the Hundred Years’ War last?

2) What colour is the black box on a commercial airliner?






1) It lasted 116 years, from 1337 to 1453.

2) Answer: The black box is always a bright colour—like orange or red—so it’s easy to find.

The machine makes equal amounts of various sizes, so Thailand has 100% of their medium/large/extra large for export only :-"

About 700 grapes go into one bottle of wine.
That's approximately 2.6 pounds, if you're wondering how much "fruit" you get when you uncork your favorite red.

COSTCO (Amazing returns)
Wine bottles
One Costco employee told KIRO 7 that a woman returned an empty bottle of wine because it gave her a headache

Christmas tree
It was the first week of January, and a woman returned her Christmas tree because "it is dead." We're unsure how long she thought the tree would live, but she wanted her money back. According to the employee, the woman received a full refund.

Underwear
Evidently, underwear is returned in all states. Some come back in the original packaging, and some are returned after being worn. In either case, the member receives a refund.

Look Up Numbers In the Phone Book
If you need someone to repair a broken washing machine, fix a leaky roof, or deep-clean your carpets prior to the turn of the 20th century, you wouldn't have Google at your fingertips.

Instead, you'd let your fingers do the walking right over to that heavy, dusty Yellow Pages—you know, the phone book you'd sit on as a kid when you were too short to reach the table—and flip through its razor-thin pages to browse services listed in alphabetical order

Ever wonder where businesses got their name from?

7-eleven
Originally called “U-Tote’m,” the convenience store chain was renamed in 1946 for its newly extended hours of operation, 7:00 am to 11:00 pm.

APPLE
Apple is named after the fruit because not only was it co-founder Steve Jobs’ favorite, but he also worked on an apple orchard. The warm, simple and relatable name “Apple” also served to set the computer company apart from its competitors.

Coca-Cola
Coca-Cola flavoring comes from coca leaves and kola nuts. Its creator John S. Pemberton changed the “K” in “kola” to arrive at perhaps the world’s most well-known brand name.

Airplane Middle seats are the most dangerous
In 2015, Time Magazine found that the most dangerous place to sit on a flight was the seats in the middle of a plane, which had a fatality rate of 39%. The safest seats in the event of a crash were in the rear third of the plane which had a fatal rate of 32%

The little holes in passenger windows are for pressure
This tidbit also comes from Reader’s Digest, which explained that an airplane's windows are made up of several panels of glass and the little holes you find at the bottom are there to reduce pressure from stressing the middle panel during flight.

In Texas it is legal to own a gun . They are the number one state in ownership at "Licenses in 2021: 1,006,555
In Texas, 45.7% of adults say they live in homes with guns."

Excellent STUFF there Doodoo.

I wonder what percentage of those 45.7% of adults would know, when asked, "Where is your gun right now?"

And, as they (used to) say in Lubbock, 'A cowboy can never have enough dildos.'

Vacation in Hawaii

Well I have some friends that are on vacation there and an example of expensive.
10 year old and an adult purchasing food from a food truck

"She got shrimp rice and one order of drunken Thai noodles. $42 US. Crazy"

So we need to look at food prices here and be thankful
