Eating Turkey does NOT make you sleepy.  It has the sleep-inducing amino acid L-Tryptophan but that only has an effect on the brain if it's taken in the absence of food and/or protein and Turkey is both of those.  Even if it did work,  there is so little of it in Turkey that it wouldn't have an effect.

It's the carbohydrates and booze that knock you out.

If I gave you one penny today, and then two tomorrow, then four on Tuesday, and then eight pennies on Wednesday, and continued to double the amount of pennies I give you for a full month, you'd have over 5 million dollars

Venus is the only planet that rotates clockwise.

The cruise liner, QE2, moves only six inches for each gallon of diesel that it burns.

Not to be a horse's ass but I remember Detroit winning at least once on TD, possibly more but the usually do lose.  They beat Dallas once, I think, even.
And, there is a tequila that contains a green worm/catapillar.  The last time I got really drunk it was on that, chasing it with beer.  I had to call my wife to come pick me up at 2 AM.  But I have been around a long time.

When we visit toilets, bathrooms, hotel rooms, changing rooms, etc., how many of you know for sure that the seemingly ordinary mirror hanging on the wall is a real mirror, or actually a two-way mirror?? Just conduct this simple test: Place the tip of your fingernail against the reflective surface and if there is a GAP between your fingernail and the image of the nail, then it is a GENUINE mirror. However, if your fingernail DIRECTLY TOUCHES the image of your nail, then BEWARE, for it is a two-way mirror

The biggest turkey known to man weighed in at 86 pounds -- about the size of a large German Shepherd. He was raised in the United Kingdom. Most domesticated turkeys weigh between 14 to 45 pounds.

The Wild Turkey is one of the world's fastest birds. Wild turkeys can fly for short distances at speeds up to 55 miles an hour. But they prefer to have their feet on the ground, where they can run up to 30 miles an hour. Domesticated turkeys -- the ones that end up in the grocer's freezer -- are not so light on their feet. They can't fly.

If one places a tiny amount of liquor on a scorpion, it will instantly go mad and sting itself to death.

In the United States, a pound of potato chips cost two hundred times more than a pound of potatoes.

If you can't get an iguana or non-venemous snake to release a bite, you can wave a cloth soaked in rubbing alcohol to get them to let go.

  This does not make any sense.

Either you're paying $200.00 for a pound of potatoe chips or you're paying 2 cents for a pound of potatoes.

The following is from an online add from Wegmans Grocery.

 

Russet Potatoes Produce 1 lb. $.99
17B

Grandma Utz's Potato Chips, Handcooked   16 oz. $3.99
Utz Potato Chips, Big Bag   16 oz. $3.99

A cockroach can live for more than a week with its head cut off. They have brains in different places in its body. The only reason it dies is because of lack of food, water, and air.

"I'm only dating your daughter for the hot box.  Despite what she thinks or may have told you people, I am not in this for the long haul.  I will never see you people again after today."
 
Things overheard at many a thanksgiving dinner table over the years, if you could read my mind.

Saying "God bless you" after someone sneezes comes from the days of the black plague. If you sneezed more then 3 times, they would say "God bless you" in hopes that you did not have the plague.
