A roll of Scott brand toilet paper weighs 7.75 ounces.

Want to know how much a water-logged roll of that toilet paper weighs? 2 pounds 6 ounces. While replacing the empty roll with a new one, it slipped from my hands and fell into the toilet. Of course the first thing I thought was: I better weigh this and share the results on Zug.

The sun is about 400 times larger than the moon. The sun is also about 400 times further from the earth than the moon. Because of this, they appear the same size in the sky.

If the sun were to suddenly disappear, it would take about 8 minutes for the Earth to cease its orbit. This fact has only been realized in the past 100 years. And if you follow that rabbit down the hole, you end up with the somewhat humorous fact the energy and matter are actually the same thing.

Stop motion animation was invented in 1898 by J. Stuart Blackton and his partner, Albert Smith. Film animation achieves the illusion of life with 24 separate frames, or still images, moved in front of the projector's shutter every second. Many animators die young due to skin cancer sustained from the intensity of studio lights they use, being randomly murdered, and catching pneumonia. They are very fragile people.

Anyone who takes bread baking seriously will own such a scale.

Fun fact:

In first grade, Joey Escobar would stick crayons up his nose until his nose bled, then the blood would dry and the crayon would get stuck and he'd have to go to the nurse's office. He did this more than once.

A male cat's penis has a band of about 120-150 backwards-pointing spines, which are about one millimeter long; upon withdrawal of the penis, the spines rake the walls of the female's vagina, which is a trigger for ovulation. This act also occurs to clear the vagina from other sperm in the context of a 2nd (or more) mating, thus giving the latter males a larger chance of conception.

To overcome objection, tear out the adam's apple of the objector with a staple remover. But, make sure the staple remover has been washed thoroughly in rubbing alcohol, to decrease the risk of infection. Any of you who have seen the movie, 28 Days Later will certainly understand how dangerous infection can be.

Platypus can be pluralized as "platypi" or "platypuses." Although all platypi have ankle spurs, only the males' can produce venom.

Goats are often used as companion animals to keep a horse calm. Someone wanting to fix a race would slip into the barn the night before the race steal the goat, then an upset and distracted horse would run a bad race.

Hence, if you are upset and not at your best, it is said that 'someone has gotten your goat.'
