oi.
ok, todays fun shtuffins... lets see... what weird junk shall i fill your heads with? ah yes...
how about this, you all know what a willow tree is right? well, did you know that the active ingredient in Asprin comes from the bark of the willow tree?
Native Americans used to chew the bark when they had aches and pains.
this is not to be confused with the Toothache Tree (also called Hercules Club or Devils Walking Stick) which contains a very potent anesthetic agent. i chewed the bark as a kid. tastes very peppery and kindof like aluminum. it will make your entire mouth quite numb, though lumber companyies have drastically reduced the number of these beautiful trees til there really arent that many around.
come visit me, i will show you one. it has large thorns on it and is really a magnificent tree. =)
thus endeth Fun Stuff #2!
hope you enjoyed!!!

when my mom was learning english, she couldn't quite master the word "fart". so she just kept saying "bark".
as in (said with a thick accent): "I must have eaten something bad, my butt keeps barking."

1. it has been a while since i studied willows, but i think that the white willow is the most potent.
2. did you eat the dog's poo as well? or did you squeeze that out before you ate it?
3. barking is fun for the whole family. my grandma barks in public and doesnt care at all. it can be rather embarassing.
4. and 5. RAZZLEdoobieDANG!

interesting... very interesting.
i wonder if it squirmed?
was it raw? did you season it? did it bark a lot? or did it "bark" a lot?
my brain hurts.
PS. i will think of a better fun thing next week. the asprin thingie was the first thing that i thought of. =)
