an amazing fact, and my second most favorite joke ever

first of all, Wm H over at amazing facts has a post about a new medical breakthrough that may very well help ease the rift between many in the two sexes. not all. but many.

and here's my second favorite joke of all time. it's old as dirt, but it still cracks me up 30 years after hearing it for the first time.

Two submarine sailors, joe from texas and bothenook from Oregon, go to texas to visit joe's family. the family lived on the typical texas ranch. while standing out front of the house, bothenook asked joe's dad how big the ranch was.
"well, if you get up early in the morning, get in the pickup truck, and follow the fenceline all around the place, you won't get back home until dark" was the reply.

bothenook thought about it for a moment, and said "you know, i had a pickup truck like that once."
