If that stupid kangaroo is found dead, look for me first.

You had kangaroo for dinner?

It's going to be appetizer for my allligator chilli.

What will be for dessert?

The local Home Despot Depot has yet to recover fully from the hurricane and still has limited batteries and flash lights

This isn't really a useless fact, but it fits in with Part's post.  FEMA uses Waffle House as an index on how fast an area is recovering from a disaster.  It seems that Waffle House is common enough that almost every area has one.  They have a disaster plan that they can begin serving a limited menu without electricity.  I would imagine they have small generators that keep the refrigerators running.  The faster the Waffle House opens, the less serious the disaster.

Birds, reptiles and amphibians have what is called a cloaca. It's both their 'exit' (of all excrement but also the eggs) and their reproductive organ.  :orly:

Warren Zevon was placed in a gifted student program when he was young. As part of that program he was personally tutored by Igor Stravinsky. Igor died before his protege put out his best work. He would have been proud had he lived to see it. http://www.mysticgames.com/famouspeople/WarrenZevon.htm

I read about that and was in a Waffle House in North Carolina in the spring only hours after tornadoes had gone through the general area and there was a lot of damage not far from it.  Houses in pieces and trees where everywhere but they where open and only did not have milk
