    It takes 832 licks to get to the center of a Tootsie Roll Pop.

    I have the certificate from the company attesting to that fact.

    Surely that would depend on the tongue size.
    True.

    I have an enormously long tongue. It's strong, too.

    I would probably add another 167 licks just to be safe to get the national average.

    Why we drown so quickly.

    You know how you'll pass out if you hold your breath for too long? It's because the brain is trying to save itself. It basically does a Cntl/ALT/DEL on you. It takes control away so you'll wake back up and breathe.

    It does the same thing if you're trying to save yourself from drowning.

    Stupid brain.

    the frog is the first animal cloned by scientist and not a sheep.
    The average age for both genders for a first sexual experience is 17.
    One in three men cheats on his partner, as opposed to one in four women. Only 28% of female cheaters get caught.
    A condom will lasts about a month in a wallet before the rubber gets worn down by friction, making it more likely to break.
    Both women and men are most likely to have their first orgasm alone.
    In the United States, every year about 15 people die from dog bites.
    Dogs and humans are the only animals with prostates.
    Sex is an instant cure for mild depression. It releases endorphins into the bloodstream, producing a sense of euphoria and leaving you with a feeling of well-being
    A lot of lovemaking can unblock a stuffy nose. Sex is a natural antihistamine. It can help combat asthma and hay fever.
    The earliest known illustration of a man using a condom during sexual intercourse is painted on the wall of a cave in France. It is dated between 12,000 and 15,000 years old.
    The first condoms in the US were made from vulcanized rubber in the 1870s. They were expensive and annoyingly thick and meant to be reused.
    Only 17% of women are likely to have an orgasm during sex .
    According to a survey of sex shop owners, cherry is the most popular flavor of edible underwear.
    A man will ejaculate approximately 18 quarts of semen, containing half a trillion sperm, in his lifetime.
    In ancient Greece and Rome *kitten* were carved out of everything they could get their hands on from wood, glass, leather, gold, silver and even animal horns.
    The left testicle usually hangs lower than the right for right-handed men. The opposite is true for lefties.
    A female orgasm is a powerful painkiller (because of the release of endorphins), so headaches are in fact a bad excuse not to have sex.
    John Harvey Kellogg invented corn flakes as a meatless breakfast food, designed to reduce the sexual drive.
