    It appears that if you want the world to beat a path to your door, there’s obviously no need to build a better mouse trap.

    How many mice did that century-and-half-old contraption capture in its lifespan?

    I like to eat Pringles.

    Is that one of those traps that can catch a mouse alive?

    I bet they went ape over that fact about gorillas.

    Take care and may God bless.

    A 155 years to catch a mouse. Must be a mighty slow trap.

    … and if you named one after a classic SNL character, it would be Gorilla Gorilla Gorilla Rosanna Rosannadanna.

    I heard that when the inventor of the Pringles potato chip died, he was cremated and his ashes were put in a Pringles can…Anyhow, I stopped eating them about a year ago. I prefer the bagged ones instead.

    If a mousetrap was built 155 years ago, why wouldn’t it work today? The concept is still the same. Lure a rat in with cheese and then trap or kill them.

    So how does tea with salt and butter taste? You’d have to scroll way down to look and see that there’s a fourth Ripley’s one to know why I said that.

    Take care and may God bless.

    Any container can be a “mousetrap.” Mice go into things.

    buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo

    is a perfectly logical and correct sentence(but is without the correct punctuation)…

    Here it is with the correct punctuation:

    “Buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo buffalo, buffalo Buffalo buffalo.”

    It’s the same with Grizzly bears: Ursus arctos horribilis: ursus is bear in Latin and arctos is bear in Greek. So a grizzly is a horrible bear bear.

    But wait. It gets better… The Eurasian brown bear is Ursus arctos arctos – bear bear bear. It’s the most bear a bear can be.

    And so now you understand the Arctic circle is named for the bears. It’s the circle with bears and the Antarctic is away from bears. We basically live in a world defined by the grizzly. How much more awesome is that!!!

    We used to call the hyperbolic paraboloids “saddle-shaped”. It’s one of the three alternative basic possible forms the universe is supposed to have, upgraded by one space dimension.
