Alice Cooper once won an Alice Cooper look alike contest. First prize was dinner with Alice Cooper.
I’ve always thought this was pretty funny. He crashed a local radio station contest as a joke, and because his costume was so crazy, the judges just assumed he was a contestant.
NASA spent a million dollars inventing a pen that would write in space. The Russians just brought a pencil.
All polar bears are left handed.
That’s sounds typical what our country would do!
You’d think a mechanical pencil would work just as well! Lol
All calico cats are female
Male donkey plus female horse, does not equal male horse plus female donkey.
Months that begin on a Sunday will always have a Friday the 13th.
Did you know the sport badminton used to be called “poona”.
“The average number of dimples on a golf ball is 336”.
(That would suck to count.)
“The colosseum in Rome could hold 14.3 Buckingham palaces”.
There is a city on every continent named rome
GOLF stands for Gentleman only Ladies forbidden
The “Marcha Real” It is one of only four national anthems in the world (along with those of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Kosovo, and San Marino) that has no official lyrics. Although it had lyrics in the past, they are no longer used.
The fear of Friday the 13th is actually named,
Paraskevidekatriaphobia.
(Pronounce that)
No hope for me then as sitting in 5th position
what c*nt invented ladies golf then? Haha
Mexico is the only country to have a coin containing precious metals in common circulation, that means the coin is actually worth the value printed on it.
All other “money”(currency) is “worthless”(without tender laws)
What is the fear of pronouncing that word called?
@Esrgood4u I have a few roofing clients, the workers comp they pay is off the chain expensive! One of my clients had 2 of his workers die on the job as well. Please, always wear your harness!!
@Meesh, my father in law was having a roof done, and one of the crew took a side job in the neighborhood. Cash job, not through the company, no workers comp. Homeowner did not have third party worker coverage.
The guy fell off. Broke his back. Paraplegic with no chance of recovery. Sued the homeowner. Homeowner sued the company because he used the company truck with logos on it and assumed coverage was there. An overall bad day for everyone.
Fun fact of the day?
There is a lawyer for every 300 people in the USA!
I’m telling ya! The longer roofers are at it, the more brave and daring they get. When you get too familiar with something, that’s when accidents happen. Just like most car accidents happen within 6 miles from home (because you are so familiar with the roads, you pay less attention)
My better half is a journeyman woodworker. She is terrified of table saws (especially the old safety-free 10hp beasts they ran in the millwork shop). Still has all her fingers even after years of high output production work doing finicky cuts, she us the master of all the custom details that are never the same size or shape. Fear is healthy.
Another random fact: you know what causes more finger amputation than the table saw, by a factor of 100? The door.
