Good Morning, Everyone. Here is today's edition of SBT. Hopefully I'll get all my facts correct today.

Butterflies taste with their feet.

A duck's quack doesn't echo, and no one knows why.

90% of NYC cabbies are recently arrived immigrants.

35% of people who use the personal ads for dating are already married (that's a creepy thought)

Elephants are one of the few animals that can't jump.

It's possible to lead a cow upstairs... but not downstairs. (Any farmers out there know why?)

Women blink nearly twice as much as men.

Americans on average eat 18 acres of pizza every day.

In the state of Colorado, a pet cat, if loose, must have a tail-light.

Sliced bread was invented by Otto Rohwedder and first sold in May 1928. It was pattened in 1954.

20,000 incorrect drug prescriptions are written each year.

In the White House there are 13,092 knives, forks and spoons.

AND FINALLY>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Hippopotomonstrosedsquippedaliophobia is the fear of big words.

Have a happy day!
 
Mythbusters disproved the Duck Quack echo thing a few episodes back.
 

I forgot to say, most of these are too funny! Thanks for the smiles! Especially the Tail Light!!!!!!!!!!!!

Which brings me to my question:
What was the best thing BEFORE sliced bread? :confused:

Does this mean legged animals? I can think of a bunch of others that can't jump. Slugs, snails, worms and I can't get any air.
 
Thanks! I enjoy reading these Strange But True threads.
 
The tail-light cracks me up!!!!!!!

I can see me trying to put a light on any of my cats! Nope, isn't going to happen!
