The KKK?...really?

PETA has done it again. Before you read this blog, please read this article first.

I'm not even sure where to start on this one... Do i start with the fact that PETA is protesting at a place where everyone there is a huge animal lover? Or perhaps the fact they are not protesting animal cruelty necessarily, but more breeding habits that are designed to help animals avoid health problems. Or maybe...just maybe i should start with the fact they are making a mockery of the fact that black people were actually tortured and killed for no other reason than their skin colour.

Yeah, maybe I'll start with that. Don't get me wrong, I'm the first to realize that black people in general play the race card far too often, for no reason. But here is a situation where playing the race card would be extremely warranted. I mean comparing animal breeding to hate filled lynchings is preposterous! First off, let's recognize that animals are not as important than people. And second, breeding and hanging are opposite things.

I can't even produce a decent blog because I'm so stunned that someone would have the balls to actually do something like this. I'm at a loss for words.

Stupid PETA

fun facts

Here are some fun facts that you might not have known about. I obviously already knew about them, which speaks to the fact that my knowledge is far superior to yours. Or I just looked them up on a website.

-women blink nearly twice as much as men.

There have been many studies done to find out why this is. No one knows for sure, but there are different theories out there...here's mine. I figure somewhere deep down in a man's subconscious, there is the feeling of having to "tough it out". Your body wants to blink sooner, but something inside is saying "no man, don't do it. You can hold out a little while longer"

-The longest word in the English language is 1909 letters long and it refers to a distinct part of DNA.

And no, i'm not going to type it for you. And who the heck has time to come up with a word that long!?

-hot and ready pizza's were thought up directly by God.

Ok, this may not be a solid "fact", but I'll give you my theory. God loves us humans so much that despite our short comings he wanted to find yet another way to bless us. So He thought up $5 hot and ready pizza's. Now He needed to choose how to implement this new strategy. Since God clearly loves the Red wings more than any other NHL team, and Since Mike Ilitch owns both the red wings, and little ceasers... God gave the hot and ready's to little ceasers. Again, this is just a theory.

-In most advertisements, including newspapers, the time displayed on a watch is 10:10

Apparetly studies have found that 10:10 is one of the most soothing looking times. Now i'm not sure, but i would bet it was a government funded study that found this out. Taking probably 50-100 thousand dollars of taxpayers money.

-The name for Oz in the "Wizard of Oz" was thought up when the creator, Frank Baum, looked at his filing cabinet and saw A-N and O-Z, hence "Oz."

He was obviously on some sort of drug at the time also... I mean seriously, flying monkeys...that's just ludicrous.

-The average secretary's left hand does 56% of the typing.

I'm probably not allowed to say "secretary" anymore. I believe they prefer to be called administrative assistants. But then again, when have i ever cared what other people think.

-Al Capone's business card said he was a used furniture dealer.

Al Capone would be the type of criminal now adays that would film his own crime, send the video to the police with his own return address on it, and a note that said "try to prove it". The guy was so smart, he was basically untouchable. Except apparently he wasn't so good at math...

-There are 336 dimples on a regulation golf ball.

Every single golf ball i've ever used has had only 335 dimples, thus making it out of balance, so when i swing it has a nasty slice. The slice is clearly the fault of the defective golf ball. Don't believe me? Then count the dimples on my ball.
