In 1992, Wisconsin rolled $19 million into the federal budget to examine gas emissions from cow flatulence! Hang Fire escape artist Dean Gunnarson has performed death-defying stunts- such as escaping a straitjacket while suspended from a burning rope 152 feet in the air- in 165 countries! Cretaceous oasis! Road workers in Heyuan, China, discovered 43 dinosaur egg fossils- up to 230 million years old!

Studying cow flatulence may, on the surface, seem frivolous. But in actuality, it is a very serious problem as millions of cattle put out copious amounts of methane into the atmosphere every day.

Escaping from a straight jacket when hanging upside down looks more dramatic than doing it while right side up. But, it is easier upside down.

Hang Fire is what you call it when you Pull the trigger and the gun Doesn’t go BANG even though it IS Loaded..That sort of round Has been known to go off about a Minute Later, though, so it is recommended that you Keep the gun pointed Away from yourself for a couple minutes.Then, if the round still hasn’t gone Bang, throw it away.

They will never convince me that cows used for food produce more methane than the vast herds of buffalo that roamed the great plains several centuries ago.

Can’t be a Cretaceous oasis because the eggs are too old for that period.

That should be spelled ‘straitjacket’ or, more correctly, ‘strait-jacket.’
