In the US there is only 2 days in the year that there is no
major league Baseball, Football, Hockey, or Basketball game.
The day before and after the Major League Baseball All-Star game.
\"thank you very little\"

Well, not only is skin the largest organ in the body, but another interesting little tidbit about skin is that the human body sheds about three pounds
of it over the course of the year.
(Norm: "Some of mine just crawled away.")
(Woody: "I don't understand, where does it go?")
To the atmosphere... dust.
(Norm: "What?")
Yeah, yeah, about 75% of all dust is human skin.

Anyone ever hear of the three light rule?
I have heard it is bad luck to light 3 cigarettes of off one flick of the lighter or one match.
During World War I if three guys tried to light 3 smokes off one light it would give someone on the other side of the trenches time to get a bead on
the general area and fire a shot.

Well, its this place where nobody works, and the pigs don\'t give you any shit. Everyone smokes weed and gets drunk all day. Its a place where
