Those drivers who kill more deer? I think they all live out where I do because we have had an unusual amount of deer being hit on the roads out here. These were fun and interesting. Especially the elbow one. Which I am not going to try. Honest.

I will have to pass these along to NLM. He has notebook, journal, and scratchpads full of this kind of stuff. I think he's even started a database of all his knowledgeable trivia. I can't lick my elbow either.

Toilets flush in E flat? I had no clue. And for the record, I too tried to lick my elbow.

It was a no-go.
