I once saw some chemistry geeks talking investments and shares etc, one of them mentioned that if you had bought some shares in walmart in 1975 and sold them in 2009 you'd get your money back ~2500 times. I havnt checked the numbers or anything but its a pretty credible guy who said it. No offense but I think that beats your beer cans tongue

Of course its a little late to say it. 1975 was a long time ago, especially considering I was first born in '89 dead

How much do you get for your beer cans in Arizona??? The rate I see is around 5 cents a can... That would mean a six pack would have to cost less than 30 cents to get a positive return...

A recent study found that the average American walks about 900 miles a year.


900/365 = 2.47

The average American walks 2.47 miles a day?
If that's true then athletes and must be really pulling for the average average American.

Oh haha I see. It has been pretty gloomy around here lately. I guess it's easy to sit in your dark room in front of the computer and pour out pessimistic dribble. We need to go outside and see how great the world is!
