Amazing True Things
Tom:
Male echidnas have a four-headed penis, but only two of the heads are used during mating. The other two heads "shut down" and do not grow in size. The heads used are swapped each time the mammal has sex.[
negative creep:
Man, everybody was in the IDF.
Blue Kitty:
In Michigan, it is illegal to chain an alligator to a fire hydrant.
Also, in Harper Woods it is illegal to paint sparrows to sell them as parakeets.

Random factoid!
In 1986 there were flash-floods in the Sydney metro area. Our entire street went underwater when a nearby river flooded. A lot of people were not covered by their insurance because "flooding is an act of god." We got insurance money because we had an open drain behind our house and the water from the drain hit our house before the river water did.
It was all the same fucking water. Like, to the point where the water rising up from the river washed down into the street drains and came back out behind our house. In order to get paid out we had to catch the fuckers out on a technicality. How fucking lame is that?
Scandanavian War Machine:
wow, that's pretty ridiculous.
here's a few more funny laws:
-in Wyoming 'You may not take a picture of a rabbit during the month of June.'
-in West Virginia 'It is legal for a male to have sex with an animal as long as it does not exceed 40 lbs.'
-in Utah 'It is against the law to fish from horseback' and 'It is illegal not to drink milk.' (??)
-in South Dakota "If there are more than 5 Native Americans on your property you may shoot them.'
-in Pennsylvania 'All fire hydrants must be checked one hour before all fires.'
While i was looking up these silly laws, i found that a surprising number of states have a law that make it illegal to whistle underwater, which i guess isn't a big deal...since it's impossible. why would so many states have the same, ridiculous law? was there an epidemic of underwater-whistling attacks or something?
