Pinocchio count.

A dime has 118 ridges around the edge.
A quarter has 119, a half dollar has 150, and a Susan B Anthony dollar has 133. and a NIS has none!

It's impossible to sneeze with your eyes open. (DON'T try this @ home!)
There is a chazuka that it hasn't been done before. However, this is known as a chazuka m'sufek, and we paskin that chazuka m'sufak l'kula. Therefore just because we don't know anyone who has done it, dose not mean that one Can't do it. Just like we don't know anyone who has counted to 100000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 X 9000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000.

The giant squid has the largest eyes in the world.
The Livyason is bigger.

In England, the Speaker of the House is not allowed to speak.
The speaker in the House of Commons is the chairman. His role is to keep the debate flowing and to make sure that the rules are followed. The speaker is supposed to be impartial, even though he is a member of one of the political parties, and so they do not get to give their own opinions on the debate. Honestly though, I think we would do a lot better in the u.s. if they had the same rule.

The microwave was invented after a researcher walked by a radar tube and a chocolate bar melted in his pocket.
Well, it was a little more then that. It was during a radar-related research project around 1946, when I was a little boy that Dr. Percy Spencer, a self-taught engineer, noticed something very unusual. He was testing a new vacuum tube called a magnetron when he discovered that the candy bar in his pocket had melted. This intrigued him, so he tried another experiment. This time he placed some popcorn kernels near the tube and, perhaps standing a little farther away, he watched with an inventive sparkle in his eye as the popcorn sputtered, cracked and popped all over his lab.
Next, he put the magnetron tube near an egg. Spencer was joined by a curious colleague, and they both watched as the egg began to tremor and quake. The rapid temperature rise within the egg was causing tremendous internal pressure. The curious colleague moved in for a closer look just as the egg exploded and splattered hot yoke all over his amazed face.

Mr. Rogers is an ordained minister.
actually Mr. Rogers WAS an ordained minister. He died. And I knew that when I used to watch him tie his shoes over and over again (didn't you just love his train set!!! )

The average person falls asleep in seven minutes.
I guess I'm not average.
tired driving is a major cause of crashes, and it can impair the human brain as much as alcohol can. According to a 1998 survey, 23% of adults have fallen asleep while driving. According to the U.S.D.T. male drivers admit to have fallen asleep while driving twice as much as female drivers. Maybe because we drive more...
In the United States, 250,000 drivers fall asleep at the wheel every day, 54% of drivers said they had driven while drowsy 28% saying they had actually fallen asleep while driving. Drowsy driving is a factor in more than 100,000 crashes, resulting in 1,550 deaths and 40,000 injuries annually in the USA.

There are 336 dimples on a regulation golf ball.
Anywhere between 300 and 500 is normal. I just counted 200 of them and they all came out different! (That happens when I'm counting the pennies in my pushka too!)

The average chocolate bar has 8 insects' legs in it.
That's disgusting and I refuse to address it!

The average human eats 8 spiders in their lifetime at night.
Same as above! You might consider closing your mouth when you sleep, or take longer then seven minutes to fall asleep, so you can watch for the spiders better.

A cockroach can live nine days without its head before it starves to death
while living in E'Y I personally have taken part in many "jook" decapitations. They ALL died. Maybe if they got their legs tangled in a chocolate bar they absorbed the nutrition that way freeing the spiders to crawl into the mouth of the sleeping (7min) speaker of the house. No wonder he couldn't talk! Maybe if he swallowed some golf balls (all 336 dimples included) with his squid eyes open while sneezing, he might microwave his pocket including the dime (how did he get u.s. money) erasing the 118 ridges around it.

The giant squid did it. How do you think his eyes got that way?

Can I make that rule for the Speaker of my house?

Hence the expression "Egg on his face"

And the power of lasers was discovered when a scientist walked in front of one and it sliced off his tie. Good thing he was wearing a white shirt, the energy reflected off of it but the dark tie burned through. Ever since, all scientists wear white coats. Maybe that's why Yeshiva guys wear white shirts too

That's why i keep all my drives to 6 minutes or less.

I think I've just been cured of my chocolate addiction

I'd better stop sleeping, I might get addicted to spiders.
