Zaz Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 I've been drinking a lot of a certain brand of bottled iced tea. It's yummy and contains no high fructose corn syrup, which is evil. But that's beside the point. Inside all the caps is a little known trivia fact. I've decided they need to be shared with more people on the planet than just tea drinkers. I hope no one minds. ~Zaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

April Showers Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 I did a watermelon seed spitting contest at a church party last summer. Do you know how hard it was to find melons with SEEDS in them? Had to pay a small fortune at a farm stand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zaz Posted June 21, 2007 Author Share Posted June 21, 2007 Oh, that's interesting, April. I don't usually eat watermelon because of the seeds. I hate them. Perhaps it stems from having a big brother that enjoyed spitting them into my hair. Argh. ~Zaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zaz Posted June 21, 2007 Author Share Posted June 21, 2007 April, you're not alone. My brother used to tell his friends about the ways he used to torture me when we were kids and then they would meet me. They couldn't figure out why I would still speak to him or be in the same room with him. Let's just say I developed a high tolerance for mean people. He's much nicer as an adult.

Laurel Lakey Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 Real Fact #261: Playing in a marching band is considered moderate exercise. Dude, not if you're marching with my brother's marching band, lol! They are the Winston Churchill Charger Marching Band and they go to state every year because of their routines. Trust me, I would consider it major exercise!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goofyemt96 Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 Wow 70 feet *L*....Thats amazing..... Zaz same with my brother...If i told you half the things he did to me as we were growing up...U guys would think i was nuts for talking to him now...But he is a better adult thankfully!!! And i was in the marching band...and didnt get much exercise then *L* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nichole Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 Zaz, I'll be thinking of your trivia thread! Silly girl! 70 ft huh....I think I'd suck the seed into the back of my throat trying to suck in all that air! There's a visual for ya! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zaz Posted June 21, 2007 Author Share Posted June 21, 2007 Laurel, I'm betting that it's just an average marching band. I used to joke in junior high that we were the Staples High School Walking Band. Pathetic. I'm not sure it would have even counted as moderate. ~Zaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
