This brings to mind what an expert on germs recommended (don't remember where I read it). Whenever you flush the toilet, an invisible plume of nastiness rises up from it and wanders about the room looking for a nice place to live. The expert suggested that you always put the lid down before flushing or, at the very least, to keep your toothbrush in a covered place. Now I always close the lid first, flush, and run from the room in terror.

Also, the expert concluded the nastiest place in the home may be the kitchen sink, since it comes into contact with all kinds of things and is touched often in a food preparation area. He recommended spraying it with diluted bleach to keep it germ-free.

Aahh, the sad state of my friends....I forwarded this list of facts to some friends and EVERY SINGLE ONE tried to lick their elbow! Rolling Eyes

Hmmm...I wonder why many people we can get to lick their elbows just by telling them they can't? Maybe we could turn this into a Distributed Computing Project?! Anyone know how to write code for one of these things?

The reason the effelump can't jump is cos it got 4 knees - the only mammal so equipped.
