6. Funny story...
I was talking with a friend and somehow we got on the subject of the game "Trivial Pursuit". He complained he was playing with his brother "...and you'd have to be crazy to play against him. He knows EVERYTHING...Like "What's the northernmost national capital in the world"..." "Ummm, Rejavik (sp?)?" "OH SHIT. YOU GOTTA play him!!!"....

7. I was helping my secretary spread some straw on her yard and
She asked me "What is the Difference between Straw and Hay", and I responded "about 40 pounds". My other secretary's husband, who had picked up the straw and helping us spread it just laughed. A bay of Straw weighs about 40 pounds, the same size barrel, if hay, weight about 80 pounds. The difference goes to the difference in the plant each product comes from. Straw is hollow (Thus where we get the name for straw used in drinks, both are hollow). Hay is solid, more energy is stored in hay, but for what we were doing, spreading straw over her yard after she planted grass, straw was good enough (She had just built a new home for herself and her husband but needed help on the yard, thus I was drafted.
