When opossums are playing 'possum, they are not "playing." They actually pass out from sheer terror.

Really ? I would have sworn I heard tigers purr at the zoo
did you know that _____ ? - Allyson - 03-17-2009
I did some research and apparently other big cats can make a rumbling sound but it's not actually purring like domestic cats do. It's debateable, but I heard this on animal planet last night so I'm going with that.

FLASH! Cheetahs are actually from space and are communicating in Space Catspeak.

yeah I can buy that, when my cat purrs it's more of a raspy rumble than a traditional purr, so why not with the bigger breeds too ?
Speaking of which, reminds me that I need to get to the zoo again for photos

I read that cats cannot be able to roar and purr. Something about the vocal chords that if they are roarers then they are missing the piece that gives them the ability to purr.

Did you know that a black hole is not shaped like a funnel as depicted in illustrations? Sometimes they have an accretion disk around it that gives the illusion that you can sneak up under it and be fine, but in reality it's gravitational pull is equal all around it in all directions at once. It's more like a funnel in all directions sucking into a central location.

Additional on this (if i am not mistaken) a black hole pulls everything in, even light. This is what makes the dark spot you see in the center of the black hole, it is the event horizon, the spot of a black hole that once something reaches it, it doesn't come back.

Ok first I will ask the question to see if anyone knows: Why is Buffalo Wild Wings called BW3 when there is only 2 W's in the name?

I do know but only because I googled it. I'll use the honor system.

I have never heard it called BW3 it has always been called BWW from what i have understood (there are none in philly but I know people in delaware who have been and they like it).

There are several regional abbreviatons for it B-Dubbs, BWW, and B2W. BW3 is the only one that the company itself has ever used. Is it weird that it was started in Columbus, OH?

well i just did a little research and found the answer but I also see they call themselves BWW on the website, looks like they changed that policy.
did you know that _____ ? - -Jiggy- - 03-17-2009
I've always called it B-dubbs myself.

Wasn't there 3 w's in the original name, then they shortened it?

humans generate roughly 700,000,000 pounds of trash per day.

I don't think it is, when you think about it there are over 6 billion people in the world so that is only 0.117 lbs of trash per person everyday.

Did you know you can debone Hooter's flappers and the bone still be in one piece? Then all you have left is meat.
mmmmmm Hooters . . . I love Hooters (restaurant that is)
did you know that _____ ? - Titan! - 03-18-2009
Yeah Queenie I hear ya, Hooter's food is pretty damn addictive.
HAve you tried the bonless wings ? They're just as tasty and no bones to debone, and a lot less mess.
also, if you haven't tried the Daytona sauce, I highly recommend it.

Never heard of Daytona sauce. I usually get hot and Plungee get's a side of 3 mile. Is the Daytona hotter than regular hot?
did you know that _____ ? - Titan! - 03-18-2009
It's a spicy almost barbecue sauce that is just slightly sweet, not quite as hot as Hot, but definetly hotter than medium or mild. After they toss it in the sauce they grill it for a bit to add an extra kick of flavor.
Daytona shrimp owns

Bleck. I hate spicy foods. When I was little, instead of spankings like my sibs got, my punishment was always to either eat a jalepeno or a table spoon of hot sauce. Haven't been able to tolerate spicy foods or peppers since.

did you know that when you mix everclear with Hawaiian punch it tastes like you are drinking fruit punch flavored rubbing alcohol.
did you know that _____ ? - Titan! - 03-19-2009
I feel the same way about vodka, regardless of the brand it all tastes like I think rubbing alcohol would taste if I drank it

I really don't sleep much these days. I sleep in spurts I guess. 2 hours here and there. That's what happens when I have no schedule. I need a hobby.
