Coke or Water????




WATER
#1. 75% of Americans are chronically dehydrated.
(Likely applies to half the world population.)
#2. In 37% of Americans, the thirst mechanism is so weak
that it is mistaken for hunger.
#3. Even MILD dehydration will slow down one's metabolism as much as 3%.
#4. One glass of water will shut down midnight hunger pangs
for almost 100% of the dieters studied in a University of
Washington study.
#5. Lack of water, the #1 trigger of daytime fatigue.
#6. Preliminary research indicates that 8-10 glasses of
water a day could significantly ease back and joint pain
for up to 80% of sufferers.
#7. A mere 2% drop in body water can trigger fuzzy short-term
memory, trouble with basic math, and difficulty focusing on
the computer screen or on a ! printed page.
#8. Drinking 5 glasses of water daily decreases the risk of
colon cancer by 45%, plus it can slash the risk of breast
cancer by 79%., and one is 50% less likely to develop
bladder cancer. Are you drinking the amount of water
you should drink every day?
COKE
#1. In many states the highway patrol carries
two gallons of Coke in the trunk to remove blood from
the highway after a car accident.
#2. You can put a T-bone steak in a bowl of Coke
and it will be gone in two days.
#3. To clean a toilet: Pour a can of Coca-Cola into the
toilet bowl and let the "real thing" sit for one hour,
then flush clean. The citric acid in Coke removes
stains from vitreous china.
#4. To remove rust spots from chrome car bumpers:
Rub the bumper with a rumpled piece of Reynolds
Wrap aluminum foil dipped in Coca-Cola.
#5. To clean corrosion from car battery terminals: Pour
a can of Coca-Cola over the terminals to bubble
away the corrosion.
#6. To loosen a rusted bolt: Apply a cloth soaked in Coca-Cola
to the rusted bolt for several minutes.
#7. To bake a moist ham: Empty a can of Coca-Cola into
the baking pan, wrap the ham in aluminum foil, and bake.
Thirty minutes before ham is finished, remove the foil, allowing the
drippings to mix
with the Coke for a sumptuous brown gravy.
#8. To remove grease from clothes: Empty a can of Coke
into the load of greasy clothes, add detergent, and run
through a regular cycle. The Coca-Cola will help loosen
grease stains. It will also clean road haze from your
windshield.
FOR YOUR INFORMATION:
#1. the active ingredient in Coke is phosphoric acid.
It will dissolve a nail in about four days. Phosphoric
acid also leaches calcium from bones and is a major
contributor to the rising increase of osteoporosis.
#2. To carry Coca-Cola syrup! (the concentrate) the
commercial trucks must use hazardous Material place
cards reserved for highly corrosive materials.
#3. The distributors of Coke have been using it to clean
engines of the trucks for about 20 years!
Now the question is, would you like a glass of water?


or Coke?

Amazing Photograph

The following is a picture taken of camels in the desert. It is considered one of the best pictures of the year (2005).  Look closely, the camels are the little white lines in the picture.  The black you see is just the shadows.   Taken from above.  

FIRST KISS

So, it's your first kiss and several questions might come to mind:

 
 
Is it the right time?
 
 
Is anyone watching?
 
 
Does your partner even want to?
 
 
Is your breath fresh?
 
 
And... Should you use some tongue?
 
 
Then you lean in and just go for it!!!

Tickle me Elmo

There is a factory in Northern Minnesota which makes the Tickle Me Elmo toys. The toy laughs when you tickle it under the arms.

Well, Lena is hired at The Tickle Me Elmo factory and she reports for her first day promptly at 8:00 AM. The next day at 8:45 AM there is a knock at the Personnel Manager's door. The Foreman throws open the door and begins to rant about the new employee.

He complains that she is incredibly slow and the whole line is backing up, putting the entire production line behind schedule. The PersonnelManager decides he should see this for himself, so the 2 men march down to the factory floor. When they get there the line is so backed up that there are Tickle Me Elmo's all over the factory floor and they're really beginning to pile up. At the end of the line stands Lena surrounded by mountains of Tickle Me Elmo's. She has a roll of plush red fabric and a huge bag of small marbles.

The 2 men watch in amazement as she cuts a little piece of fabric, wraps it around two marbles and begins to carefully sew the little package between Elmo's legs. The Personnel Manager bursts into laughter.

After several minutes of hysterics he pulls himself together and
approaches Lena. "I'm sorry," he says to her, barely able to keep a straight face, "but I think you misunderstood the instructions I gave you yesterday... "Your job is to give Elmo two test tickles.

The Blonde Space Program

Today in Washington, at a high-level meeting of all the world's space
agencies, representatives gathered to discuss and coordinate plans for
continued manned exploration of our solar system.
The representative from the United States' space agency, NASA, discussed
America's plans to send a manned mission to Mars and set up a base there
within the next twenty years.
The representative from the Russian space agency proposed sending a mission
to Titan, a somewhat proto-earthlike moon of Saturn (either that or Triton,
a moon of Neptune; they hadn't finalized plans yet.)
The representative from Japan's agency JAXA proposed building a space colony
in the asteroid belt to exploit its tremendous mineral resources, while ESA,
Europe's space agency, wanted to set up a base on Mercury because they
thought they'd enjoy all that sunshine (ouch!)
After China proposed running a cable to the moon, to harness its
solar-collecting power...
Finally, the representative from the Blonde Space Agency delineated their
plans to send a manned mission to the SUN!
The other delegates looked at her simply aghast! "You'll be burned up!",
they exclaimed.
She just looked at them smugly, "No, we won't", she said. "We're going to
send them at night <smirk>."

Wife is Expecting

Here is an old joke my Dad told me many years ago:

There was a young private in the army, and on Friday he went to ask his
Sarge for a weekend pass, to go visit his wife. He said, "She's expecting",
so the sergeant gave him leave.
The following weekend, the Private again says, "Sarge, can I have a weekend
pass? My wife's expecting." Sarge again says okay.
And again the following weekend, same story again.
Finally, after a month of weekend leaves, when the young private again
approaches his sergeant for a weekend leave, and Sarge asks why...
Of course: "She's expecting". Sarge has had too much and blows up, "WHAT is
your wife expecting exactly?!"
Private: "Well, ME, of course."

Dating Motorcycles

Heard a radio DJ quip: "I keep seeing all these bumper stickers that say "Start Seeing Motorcycles"
So, I thought bout it, and... I have a date with a one this Saturday."

The Donald

Donald Trump is coming out with his own brand of vodka.
It's REALLY STRONG STUFF!
Turns out that it's the same stuff his barber has been drinking before
cutting The Donald's hair. ;-)

New Supermarket

The new Supermarket near our house has an  automatic
water mister to keep the produce fresh. Just before  it
goes on, you hear the sound of distant thunder and  the
smell of fresh rain.

When you approach  the milk cases, you hear cows
mooing and there is a scent of fresh hay.

When you approach the egg case, you hear hens cluck
and cackle and the air is filled with the pleasing  aroma
of bacon and eggs frying.

The veggie  department features the smell of fresh
buttered  corn.

I don't buy toilet paper there any  more.

Bonus Comment:


An East Texas couple, both real-life rednecks, had 9 children. They went to the doctor to see about getting the husband "fixed". The doctor asked them why, after nine children would they choose to do this. The husband replied that they had read in a recent article that one out of every ten children being born in North America was Mexican and they didn't want a Mexican baby because neither of them could speak Spanish.








Pecans In The Cemetery

On the outskirts of a small town, there was a big, old pecan
tree just inside the cemetery fence. One day, two boys filled
up a bucketful of nuts and sat down by the tree, out of sight,
and began dividing the nuts.

"One for you, one for me. One for you, one for me," said one
boy. Several dropped and rolled down toward the fence.

Another boy came riding along the road on his bicycle. As he
passed, he thought he heard voices from inside the cemetery.
He slowed down to investigate. Sure enough, he heard,
"One for you, one for me. One for you, one for me."

He just knew what it was. He jumped back on his bike and rode
off. Just around the bend he met an old man with a cane,
hobbling along.

"Come here quick," said the boy, "you won't believe what I
heard! Satan and the Lord are down at the cemetery dividing up
the souls."

The man said, "Beat it kid, can't you see it's hard for me to
walk." When the boy insisted though, the man hobbled to the
cemetery. Standing by the fence they heard, "One for you, one
for me. One for you, one for me..."

The old man whispered, "Boy, you've been tellin' the truth.
Let's see if we can see the Lord." Shaking with fear, they
peered through the fence, yet were still unable to see anything.

The old man and the boy gripped the wrought iron bars of the
fence tighter and tighter as they tried to get a glimpse of the
Lord.

At last they heard, "One for you, one for me. That's all.
Now let's go get those nuts by the fence and we'll be done."

They say the old man made it back to town a full 5 minutes ahead
of the boy on the bike.

Silly Geese

Have you ever wondered why, when a flock of geese is migrating in "V" formation, one side of the V is longer
than the other? There is actually a good reason for this phenomenon. Do you want to know why one side is longer than the other? Then scroll down...

It's because there are more geese on the longer side.
