Isn’t summertime the time to have some fun? Drink some yummy beverages and tell some jokes?? Did you know that the Snapple company has funny sayings written inside the lids of their yummy drinks? When I went to their website, I found a nice long list…………which I share with you in the spirit of summertime fun:
Animals that lay eggs don’t have belly buttons…………… A honey bee can fly at 15mph…………. A hummingbird weighs less than a penny………… Children grow faster in the spring…………. Broccoli is the only vegetable that is also a flower…….. Almonds are part of the peach family………… The only food that does not spoil is honey………….. The Hawaiian alphabet has only 12 letters………… An ant’s sense of smell is stronger than a dog’s………… Elephants are the only mammal that cannot jump……… Mosquitoes have 47 teeth…………. There are 63,360 inches in a mile………… Strawberries contain more Vitamin C than oranges………….. A one-day weather forecast requires about 10 billion math calculations………… The longest one syllable word is screeched…………. No word in the English language rhymes with month………… You share your birthday with nine million others in the world……… No piece of paper can be folded more than seven times…………. About 18% of animal owners share their bed with their pet……….. Alaska has more caribou than people………… A mile on the ocean and a mile on land are not the same distance…….. You burn more calories sleeping than watching TV …………… Only male turkeys gobble…………. Hawaii is the only state with one school district………… Holland is the only country with a national dog.
And I’ll just bet as you were reading these quick “comebacks” came to your lips immediately!!! Ten billion computations and the weather guessers still get it wrong too often???? You bet you cannot outrun an ornery honeybee!!! Oh, and the National Dog of Holland is the Keeshond.
