Facts From A Teenager

Teenagers offer a new view of life. They seem to delight in the strangest things. The weirder, the better. The following are random facts my particular teenager has relayed over the last few weeks. I hope you enjoy them as much as we have:

• A Quarter has 119 grooves on its edge, a Dime has one 118.
• Every time you lick a stamp, you're consuming 1/10th of a calorie.
• Ants stretch when they wake up in the morning.
• During your lifetime, you'll eat about 60,000 pds. of food. That's the weight of about 6 elephants.
• Dolphins sleep with one eye open.
• The African Cicada Fly spends 17 years sleeping, then wakes up for 2 weeks, mates and then dies.
• Americans eat about 18 acres of pizza a day.
• Horses can't vomit and pigs can't look up in the sky.

Do you feel as smart as a teenager now?

Not even close.
