Here are Some Animal Laws That Are COMEPLETELY True:
-In Norfolk, Virginia It Is Illegal For Hens To Lay Eggs Before 8am And After 4pm.
-In McDonald, Ohio It Is Illegal For Farmers To March A Goose Down A City Street.
-In Pennsylvania It Is Illegal To Shoot Bullfrogs On A Sunday.
-It Is Illegal For Horses To Wear Cowbells Inside The City Limits Of Tahoe City, California.
-In Wanassa, New Jersey Dogs Cannot "cry" Without Breaking The Law.
And My Favorite:
-It is Illegal To Ride a Mule Down Lang, Kansas' Main Street in August, Unless The Animal Is Wearing A Straw Hat.
If You Don't Like Them Then......Oh Well.
this is really crazy!!!!!

1. Bill Gates earns $250 every SECOND, that's about $20 million a DAY
and $7.8 billion a YEAR!
2. If he drops a thousand dollars, he won't even bother to pick it up
because in the 4 seconds it takes to pick it up, he would have already
earned it back.
3. U.S's national debt is about $5.62 trillion. If Bill Gates wants to
pay the debt by himself; he will finish it in less then 10 years.
4. He can donate $15 to everyone on earth and still be left with $5
million for his pocket money.
5. Michael Jordan is the highest paid athlete in the U.S. If he
doesn't drink and eat, and keep his annual income at $30 million,
he'll have to wait for 277 years to become as rich as Bill Gates is
today.
6. If Bill Gates were a country, he will be the 37th richest country on
earth.
7. If you change all of Bill Gate's money to $1 bills, you can make a
road from earth to moon 14 times back and forth. But you will have to
make that road non-stop for 1400 years, and use a total of 713 BOEING
747 planes to transport all the money.
8. Bill Gates will be 42 this year. If we assume that he still can
live for another 35 years, he has to spend $6.78 million per day to
finish his money before his death.
The Best Part:
9. BUT!!! If we the Microsoft Windows users claim $1 for every time
their computers hang because of Microsoft Windows, Bill Gates will go
bankrupt in 3 years. |
