I had an off egg the other day and the yolk was black.... eww it stunk. When I say I had, I mean I broke it into the bowl....
I always check to see if the egg sinks in a glass of water before I use them, even (supposedly) fresh eggs. If they float it means they have started to go off, producing gas which gives the egg buoyancy.

I have found a few more for you all to have a ponder about :

In 4000BC Egypt, men and women wore glitter eye shadow made from the crushed shells of beetles .... ewwwww.


Butterflies taste with their feet ... how kewl is that one although I don't think that is for me.


0.3% of all road accidents in Canada involve a moose .... :eek:


The average person laughs about 15 times a day ... :scratch: who would have thunk.


50,000 cells in your body will have died and been replaced by new cells while you have been reading this sentence ..... now how great is that.


You are more likely to get attacked by a cow than a shark ... now I have to be careful when I walk in the paddocks now .... :eek: now they tell me.

I have some new ones for you all to ponder over :


* Cats have over 100 vocal sounds, Dogs only have about 10 ..... I knew cats were smarter...

* The average human body contains enough potassium to fire a toy cannon .... Don't tell the kids that there could be some dire consequences after :eek:

* The poisonous copperhead snake smells like fresh cut cucumbers ..... I am so glad that I don't like the smell of fresh cut cucumbers.

* More than 50% of the ppl in the world have never made or recieved a telephone call ...... I wonder if the reason is most of them r young children ???

* Some lions mate over 50 times a day .... :eek: so glad I am a human.

* The average person is about a quarter of an inch taller of a night .... I wish, I need all the help I can get.

* In a study of 200,000 ostriches over a period of 80 yrs, no one reported a single case where an ostrich buried its head in the sand .... I am pleased to hear of this or they could have been extinct from the fact that they would suffercate in the sand.

* A cough releases an explosive charge of air that moves at speeds up to 100kph .... :eek: now that is fast just for a simple cough.

* Human thighbones are as strong as concrete .... Well I never would have thought it.

* The first known contraceptive was crocodile dung, used by the Egyptians in 2000 BC ...... I am wondering how they used it ????

Very interesting, and as for the contraceptives. Do you really want to know?
