    We also boast more Starbucks than the rest of the world. But that’s not as impressive.

    Okaaaaaay……If the US has more pyramids than Egypt, how come I’ve never seen any? You’d think I’d at least find ONE.

    It’s a good think Picasso didn’t sign his paintings. No one could have seen the picture.

    Most pyramids in the world are step pyramids. The Egyptian pyramids became notable when Egyptians started building smooth-sided pyramids. Also, the Egyptian pyramids were larger. The Great Pyramid was the world’s tallest man-made structure for over 3,000 years — longer than any other.

    Picasso must have really hated filling out forms.

    If Picasso had been in the U.S. Army, his dogtags would have read “Pablo NMI Picasso”. (NMI= No Middle Initial)
