Word of the Day!

Popcorn Fart - Something that is very dry

Used in a sentence today by one of the engineers "these plants are dryer then a popcorn fart."

I learn something new every day, that keeps me entertained.

Quote:
An average person visits the toilet 2500 times a year. About 6-8 times a day. You spend about 3 years of your life in the toilet.

Poor toilet condition is a worldwide problem. More than half of the world population have no proper sanitation.

Suppression of urination due to dirty toilets can lead to kidney and bladder diseases. In order to avoid visting public toilets, Some people refrain from drinking and suffer dehydration.

The inventor of the flushing toilet was Thomas Crapper.

Female takes 3 times longer than male, yet both toilet sizes are often same.

Toilet remains as a ‘taboo’ as people are shy to discuss the subject.

There are toilet associations worldwide promoting toilet education and culture.

Chinese Emperors first felt the need for something to use to clean themselves and thus they ordered the first ever toilet paper in AD 1391. Each sheet of toilet tissue was then 2 feet by 3 feet.

In 1890, the Scott Paper Company manufactured toilet paper on a roll, much as we know it today.

Skepticisms is the longest word that alternates hands when typing!

No piece of square dry paper can be folded more than 7 times in half!

The king of hearts is the only king without a moustache on a standard playing card!

A group of geese on the ground is a gaggle, a group of geese in the air is a skein!

Until 1796, there was a state in the United States called Franklin. Today it's known as Tennessee!

The placement of a donkey's eyes in its head enables it to see all four feet at all times!
