HUMAN BODY FACTS

The human body is a machine that is full of wonder. This collection of human body facts will leave you wondering why in the heck we were designed the way we are.

1... Scientists say the higher your I.Q. The more you dream.

2...The largest cell in the human body is the female egg.

3...The smallest is the male sperm.

4... You use 200 muscles to take one step.

5... The average woman is 5 inches shorter than the average man.

6... Your big toes have two bones each while the rest have three.

7... A pair of human feet contain 250,000 sweat glands.

8... A full bladder is roughly the size of a soft ball.

9... The acid in your stomach is strong enough to dissolve razor blades.

10..The human brain cell can hold 5 times as much information as
the Encyclopedia Britannica.

11.. It takes the food seven seconds to get from your mouth to
your stomach.

12.. The average human dream lasts 2-3 seconds.

13.. Men without hair on their chests are more likely to get
cirrhosis of the liver than men with hair.

14.. At the moment of conception, you spent about half an hour
as a single cell.

15.. There is about one trillion bacteria on each of your feet.

dilate, they do the same when you are looking at someone you hate.

20.. Blondes have more hair than dark-haired people.

21... Your thumb is the same length as your nose.

22.. At this very moment, I know full well you are putting this
last fact to the test ..now remove your thumb from your nose and pass this
on to the friends you think might be interested in comparing their thumbs
to their noses as well.

You did it -- I KNOW you did !!!!!

Well, since you are the only one that wanted to know what my thoughts were on the conventions, I figured I would answer you here instead of on my blog.

I think they both were big parties, though I think the democratic one was a bit more like he was a 'star' or already president or something. And I think it was a bit arrogant to have his speech where he did. But I think they both sounded the same in the sense that they all think they are going to go in and fix everything. And those who are for them say the same things against those against them. It was funny because I was talking to someone about it and they were so upset about the things being said about the republicans and the way it was said. I said, "yes, but the republicans can sound the same way too, don't they?" I just don't see much of a difference in the way they sound.

I'm looking for where they truly stand on things. Some issues I know, some I just hear fluff. Either way I'm a little disappointed in the selection this election cycle. Though I am excited about the 'first' either would make. Either the first African American president, or the first woman VP. Those are historic and I think it's great we are part of it.

So there you go, that's what I thought about it (in a somewhat nutshell). Sorry you asked? ;) So did you watch them? What did you think?
