    Tables are made to make sure we don't eat on the floor. Tablecloths were made so we don't eat off of the table. Place mats were made to make sure we don't eat off of the tablecloth. And plates were made so we don't eat off of the place mats.

    Dolphins only sleep with one half of their brain. The other is needed so they can go to the surface and breathe. They will take turns, resting first one and then the other half of their brain.

    Wanna know the current outside wind speed? Find a flag, then divide the angle of flight by 4. This equals current wind speed. Example: flag is flying straight out (90 degrees) / 4 = 22.5 MPH wind speed.
