That wouldn't suprise me...almost everything else is a felony today...

On the 6th day of Christmas . . .
It is you are what you eat.

A fruit cake with alcohol in it and placed in a well sealed tin will still be edible up to 25 years later.

Or, about as long as Trevor's underpants last, before he has to replace them.

But, frankly, I'd rather eat the fruitcake. Sorry, Trevor!

Next time: the 7th day of Christmas

And, the most famous of the adults who played in the movie was Herman Munster, the one and only Fred Gwynne playing Judd Crandall. Hats off to Frankenstein's cousin!  Twirling

In order to allow wind and rain to complete the Mount Rushmore monument through erosion, sculptor GUTZON BORGLUM carved the figures a few inches higher than to the depth he wanted to perfect his design.  BORGLUM estimated that erosion would complete the monument in about 300,000 years.

How many licks does it take to get to the Tootsie Roll center of a Tootsie Pop? 


A Purdue University study concluded that it takes an average of 364 licks to get to the center using a "licking machine".  (I don't know what a licking machine is; I don't want to know what a licking machine is.)  When using human volunteers, it took an average of 252 licks. 

A study by the university of Michigan concluded that it takes 411 licks.

A 1996 study by undergraduate students at Swarthmore College concluded that it takes an average of 144 licks. 

Harvard Grad students created a rotating mechanical tongue and concluded it took 2255 licks (2256 licks if it's raspberry.)

A student study from Cambridge concluded that it takes 3,481 licks. 

Mr. Owl has concluded that it takes 3.

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.

    Lesson Learned:
    • Osmosis: os·mo·sis (oz-mo'sis, os-) n., 1. When a bird eats something.
