From your large intestine to suing the big guy. It’s all big.

The small intestine is bigger than the large intestine. I thought you should know. It goes back to the old phrase: “You can’t judge a book by its cover.” It seems the small intestine measures 20 feet long with a one-inch diameter. The large intestine is five feet long but has a three-inch diameter. Even with the thickness considered, the small is bigger. Go figure.

Sometimes, depending on what we eat, digesting our food can be sheer hell. And then there is always the possibility that our intestines may become the food for someone else. Follow me here as I get to this next item.

The CDC website has a zombie preparedness section.

I know I’ve mentioned it before, but the truth is the truth. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention monitor epidemics. Yeah. We know. And one of those listings is completely devoted to preparing for the Zombie apocalypse. Personally, I think this was posted the day after the January 6th attacks on the Capitol, in which many people watching on the news mistook this for a Zombie Attack. Which, it may have been if we really think about it. Yes. A little hell on earth that day, thanks to the band of rioting Trump followers. Indoctrinated Zombies.

Hell on earth. Yes, the hell is real, as there are many places named for the devil’s lair. Four, to be exact. One each in Michigan, Cayman Islands, Netherlands, and Norway. But, perhaps hell hath frozen over. The one in southern Norway has temperatures dropping into the negatives, for many months of the year.

And then there is another kind of hell for some people. How about Friday the 13th? Like the movie. It was filmed at an actual summer camp. After the movie was shot, people started scaring away the little children campers. It got so bad that the Camp Nobebosco website posted a warning against this scary debacle. I bet a hockey mask was involved in every instance.

If that were not enough about scary movies, the house from the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre is now a family restaurant. Yum! The place was a suburban house, where that horrible killer Leatherface did what he did with his chainsaw. Initially, it was a Texas Chainsaw Massacre-themed restaurant. Holy heck, it came complete with a Leatherface dummy in the entrance. That didn’t last. It is now called the Grand Central Cafe. Either way, I’d be careful about asking for a steak knife.

Okay, I know I’ve used a lot of language in this one, but I’ve heard the term shithead more than once in my life. I’m not sure I’ve never heard pisshead. Until now. I just learned that lobsters communicate with pee. Apparently, they urinate at each other with the bladders on each side of their heads. I have to say. I am truly thankful humans are not built this way. People are wonky enough as it is.

I mean, people say and do strange things. For instance, consider this. There are 152 people in the U.S. named LOL. In truth, it means “laugh out loud” and not “lots of love.” But either way, 152 people have LOL as their legitimate birth name. Strangely, most of these LOLs live in Wyoming. I guess there’s a lot of chortling out there.

Let’s move to something that may really make you laugh out loud. It appears that some people have tried to sue God. Yes, some folks have actually filed lawsuits against God. They tried to push this through the courts for several different reasons, like negligence, failure to keep people away from the Devil, and other harmful acts of the big guy upstairs. All I have to say is they better have one hell of a good lawyer.

On the other hand, there are the believers. It seems that 7% of Christian Americans pray for a parking spot. Yes, a recent survey showed that 7% of Christian Americans petition the good lord for a good space near the door. As if he/she didn’t have bigger problems to attend to. “Oh. Here Kevin. Let me drop everything and open up a spot for you.”

And with all of that, I hope your day is filled with good facts, all your own.
