    A pig's orgasm lasts for 30 minutes (WOW)

    Banging your head against a wall uses 150 calories an hour. (Still not over that pig thing!)

    Humans and dolphins are the only species that have sex for pleasure. Is that why Flipper was always smiling? (Why isn't the pig included in this list?)

    The strongest muscle in the body is the tongue. (Hmmmmm.....)

    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....")

    An ostrich's eye is bigger than it's brain. (I know some people like that.)

    Starfish don't have brains. (I know some people like that too!)

    Remember, when someone annoys you, it takes 42 muscles in your face to frown. BUT, it only takes 4 muscles to extend your arm and smack the jerk upside the head.

    If Barbie were life-size, her measurements would be 39-23-33. She would stand seven feet, two inches tall
