July Lessons

Monday

Grasshoppers can bite.

Tuesday

The GM food scare may well have started from a discredited scientific study that poisoned mice with potatoes. All the study really showed was that potatoes contain poisons (which incidently are contained on the outisde 6mm of a potato).

Wednesday

People have the ability to take a football predicting octopus seriously. Incidently a German win today would at last show that octopodes cannot predict football results! (Something surely we should all know!)

Unfortunately for my desire for rational explanations Spain won and the octopus was correct.

Even worse news is that it predicted the final but if it hadn’t a parakeet would have been celebrated for its psychic powers!

Thursday

On Saturday it is the 31st annual “Moon Amtrak” day, when people gather by the side of a railway in Orange County and bare their backsides at passing trains. This annual event occurs on the second Saturday in July every year.

Friday

If you have 8 railings and remove the 2nd 3rd 6th and 8th railings, running a stick down the 1st 4th 5th and 7th at an even speed will give you a tango beat. (incidently if you have 30 railings leave 1 4 6 8 9 12 14 16 17 18 19 20 26 27 28 29 30 and you will get the rhythm for the Simpsons theme)

Saturday

The Monty Hall dilemma actually dates to the 30s, and not to Monty Hall himself. Monty Hall never gave contestants the opportunity to swap doors.

Sunday

Annabel Chong was from Singapore… something they don’t seem to advertise much.

Wonderful goods from you, man. I’ve understand your stuff previous to
and you are just too excellent. I really like what you have acquired here, certainly like what you are stating
and the way in which you say it. You make it enjoyable
and you still care for to keep it smart. I can’t wait
to read far more from you. This is really a great site.

Today, I went to the beach with my children. I found a sea shell and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and said “You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear.” She placed the shell to
her ear and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and it
pinched her ear. She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is entirely off topic but I had to tell someone!

I was very happy to discover this website. I want to to thank you for ones time for this particularly fantastic read!!
I definitely enjoyed every bit of it and I have you saved as a favorite to see new information in your
site.

With havin so much content do you ever run into any problems
of plagorism or copyright infringement? My website has
a lot of exclusive content I’ve either authored myself or outsourced but it appears a lot of it is popping it up
all over the web without my agreement. Do you know any solutions to
help stop content from being stolen? I’d genuinely appreciate it.
