Pets Can Predict the Weather
We do not need a weatherman to know which way the wind blows, say America's pet owners. 67% are confident that their furry, feathered and even finned friends can predict an approaching storm, according to a new Associated Press/Petside.com poll.
Pooch owners are most convinced of their four-legged friend's ability:
> 72% say Fido is a great weather prognosticator.
> 66% of cat owners and 59% of fish fanciers say Fluffy and Goldie are their go-to predictors of stormy weather.
> 77% of folks with other types of pets have noticed this skill, too. Sound odd? Not to animal experts who agree that storms create a static electric charge that pets can most likely sense, along with their owner's apprehension.
As to how animals indicate that bad weather looms, nearly two-thirds of the respondents say their pet hides, while 56 % say the critter cries. (National Examiner)

Is it for a One Night Stand or Companionship
(Netscape) Does a man prefer a woman with an amazing body or a beautiful face? That depends on whether he considers the woman a one-night stand or wants to develop a
long-term, romantic relationship with her. Men who are looking for short-term companionship, seek out women with great bodies, while men who want a long-term relationship, look for women with a pretty face, according to psychologists from The University of Texas at Austin. 25% of the men who were told to consider the mate as a long-term partner looked at their potential partner's body.
In contrast, 51% of those who were told to consider her as a short-term partner chose to look at her body.

Writing is Better than the Keyboard
When it comes to learning the ABCs, children do better when they write them out instead of type them in.
Researchers have proved that the pen is mightier than the keyboard when it comes to teaching children how to read and write. Writing the old fashioned way more deeply engages the part of the brain related to language, they say. Writing and reading well require using numerous senses that are short circuited by training on a computer, they add. (National Examiner)

NOW THERE IS MOVIE RAGE
A phenomenon called "Movie Rage" is sweeping the nation. According to a poll of emergency rooms, more and more patients are going to the theater to see the latest flick and departing in an ambulance.
"Movie Rage makes Road Rage look like child's play," says Dr. Jorge Gonzalez, an ER physician at Our Lady of Angles in The Outfield in San Diego. "I patched up a woman who was viciously stabbed with a nail file. She kept answering her cell phone during a movie.
The lady sitting next to her went berserk." The survey showed the behaviors most likely to result in assault with a deadly weapon are:
• Talking
• Crunching popcorn
• Repeatedly sucking the last two dribbles of soda from a straw
• Answering a cell phone
• Rattling a plastic bag of candy
• Tipping boxes of Raisinettes or SnoCaps so the contents slide back and forth
• Blurting out the ending of the movie
• Kicking the back of the person's seat in front of you

MY PERSONAL TIPS ON “HOW TO GET THE GIRL”
• Give her chocolate. If she's allergic, dip the chocolate in medicine.
• Take her for a long, romantic walk. Too tired to walk? Follow her on a mini-bike.• Take a trip together. If you can't afford a trip, enlist in the Navy.
• Exercise is a sure way to make her hot. If she's still not hot after exercise, suggest plastic surgery.
• Slash her tire. Then leave a new tire on her doorstep, ring the bell and run. You're her hero.
• Invite her over for a quiet dinner at home. While you're at it, invite some friends over, too. Might as well get a keg. Party!
• Introduce her to your friends. Don't have any friends? Take her to a cemetery and say that all your friends died on a class trip. Make your move.
• Tell her she looks beautiful. If she doesn't react, that means she's sleeping. Gently wake her and reiterate how beautiful she looks. If she screams in terror, serve her breakfast in bed.
• Send flowers to her workplace. Unless she works in a floral shop. In that case, send a beehive. The bees will help pollinate all her plants.
• Relationships can grow stale over time. Keep things fresh by having close friendships with other women.
• If she likes to dance, take her to a club. If she doesn't like to dance, let her sit in a wheelchair while you push her around the dance floor.
• Arrange activities that you both enjoy. Such as watching you suffer.
• Arrive on time. If you think you're going to be late, drive faster.
