“Plants eat light” …. interesting way to describe photosynthesis. More incredible is that this process of “eating light” has kept us animals sustained for hundreds of millions of years with its waste product — oxygen.
A guy walks into a bar and orders a beer. “I recently entered a competition to see who gained the most weight and lost the most hair,” he tells the bartender.
“What the heck? Why?” the bartender asks.“Oh, they didn’t call it that,” the guy replies. “It was advertised as ‘high school class reunion,’”
A young boy enters a barber shop, and the barber whispers to his customer, “This is the dumbest kid in the world. Watch while I prove it to you.”
The barber puts a dollar bill in one hand and two quarters in the other, then calls the boy over and asks, “Which do you want, son?” The boy takes the quarters and leaves.
“What did I tell you?” said the barber. “That kid never learns!”
Later, when the customer leaves, he sees the same young boy coming out of the ice cream parlor.
“Hey, son! May I ask you a question? Why did you take the quarters instead of the dollar bill?”
The boy licked his cone and replied: “Because the day I take the dollar the game is over!”
A little old man stuck his head into a barbershop and asked“How long before I can get a haircut?”
The barber looked around the shop full of customers and said, “About 2 hours from now.” The old guy left.
A few days later, the same guy stuck his head in the door and asked, “How long before I can get a haircut?”
The barber looked around at the shop and said, “About 3 hours.” The old guy left.
A week later, the same guy stuck his head in the shop and asked, “How long before I can get a haircut?”
The barber looked around the shop and said, “About an hour and a half…”. The old guy left.
The barber turned to his friend and said, “Hey, Jason, do me a favor. Follow that old man and see where he goes. He keeps asking how long he has to wait for a haircut, but he never comes back.”
A little while later, Jason returned to the shop, laughing hysterically.
The barber asked, “So, where does that little old man go when he leaves?”
Jason looked up, wiped the tears from his eyes and said, “Your house!”
Ok I’m going to call BS on the 7% of body weight being blood. As one probably realises from my user name I’m a heavy guy I have weighed about 280 lbs since I was 13 years old, my weight rarely fluctuates between doctor weigh ins by more than + or – 2lbs. According to that formula I have about 19.6 lbs of blood in my body. When i was a young man , in my 20’s i got sick. Couldn’t keep food down and could barely keep any water down. In the span of 2 weeks I lost over 100 lbs. Again according to the Rbion fact I would have only had about 12.6lbs of blood left when i started recovering. The thing is my body size didn’t change, just the amount of fat i was carrying around. How could one’s body lose that much blood without bleeding, and no reduction in size, only a reduction in mass? And wouldn’t that have caused issues with the amount of oxygen, nutrients, etc. traveling through my body in the blood stream?

Humans also emit light, but too dim and in the wrong wavelengths for us to see.
