Fun Facts…Planet Earth Part 3

The Mediterranean Sea used to be a vast empty basin-like depression until the Atlantic Ocean swelled sufficiently to overflow the Straits of Gibraltar  and fill it with water. This colossal event, known as the Zanclean Flood, happened more than five million years ago.

Mount Everest weighs around 350 trillion pounds. It grows in height by around a quarter of an inch every year.

Ten of the world’s 14 mountains that stand higher than 26,247 feet are found in the Himalayas.

The most volcanic region on the planet is Indonesia. This vast island nation is home to more than 13,000 volcanoes.

More than half a million gallons of water flow over the edge of Niagara Falls every second.

The world’s tallest uninterrupted waterfall is Angel Falls in Venezuela. The falls themselves stand more than 3,000 feet tall, while the water flowing over them plunges 2,648 feet

If it were not classified as a continent, Australia would be the world’s largest island.

The world’s largest island is Greenland. At 840,000 square miles, it is more than twice the size of its closest rival, New Guinea.

The Sweetener Editor:   Are you using a sweetener instead of Dixie Crystals, LL ?

The Super Rodent Cat:   It isn’t a sugar substitute, but a 20 pound rodent has made a rebirth in California.   They dig under waterways, dams, etc.    The are just another rat for the once Golden State.

The Democrat government is so concerned with sexual surgery on children, and giving illegals everything they need that the rodents will destroy the dams and levees.

When the dams wash away they will have a crisis, like Corpus Christi, Texas.

Bear On The Roof…

Image result for picture of a bear on the roof

A man wakes up one morning in Alaska to find a bear on his roof.

 He googled to locate an ad for a  “Bear Remover.”

 He calls the number and the bear remover says he’ll be over in 30 minutes.

 The bear remover arrives and gets out of his van. He’s got a ladder, a baseball bat, a shotgun and a mean old pit bull.

 “What are you going to do,” the homeowner asks?

 “I’m going to put this ladder up against the roof, then I’m going to go up there and knock the bear off the roof with this baseball bat.

When the bear falls off, the pit bull is trained to grab his testicles and not let go. 

The bear will then be subdued enough for me to put him in the cage in the back of the van.”

 He hands the shotgun to the homeowner.

 “What’s the shotgun for?” asks the homeowner.

 “If the bear knocks me off the roof, shoot the dog.”

Fun Facts…Planet Earth Part 2

Because the Earth is not a perfect sphere, the circumference around the equator (24,900 miles) is slightly larger than the circumference around the poles (24,800 miles).

The mean average temperature of the entire planet is 59F.

It doesn’t take the Earth 365 days to orbit the Sun, but rather around 365 1/4. That extra quarter day (around six hours) is why we need to add an extra day to our calendar every four years.

The Earth’s crust is the thinnest, coldest,and least dense of all the Earth’s geological layers. At its thickest point, the crust is no more than around 30 miles thick. The Earth’s outer core is more than 1,400 miles thick.

The crust is also divided into two sections known as the sial (the lighter, less dense rocks that form the bedrock of the continents) and the sima (the denser rocks, lying under the sial, that form the ocean bed).

The Earth’s largest lake is actually a sea. The Caspian Sea in west central Asia/the far easter of Europe is 1,400,ooo sq miles in size. That is more than 40 times the size of Lake Superior.

The Sahara is the world’s largest sandy desert and is growing by around 30 miles every year.

The world’s oldest desert, meanwhile, is the Namid  Desert in southern Africa. It has been covered in arid sand for more than 70 million years.
