    Midgets and Dwarfs Uncovered PDF Print E-mail

    Midgets and dwarfs are well known across the entire world and everyone has had an experience with the "little people" at some time in their lives. But far fewer people actually know the difference between these two small phenonmenons, which is why it's time more people did.

    Dwarfism is most commonly caused by achondroplasia, which results in disproportionately sized arms and legs. Officially, the term "dwarf" is generally used to describe a person with a medical or genetic condition resulting in an adult height of 4'10" or less.

    The term "midget" is sometimes used to describe a proportionate dwarf. In other words, midgets are proportionately small all round. Since it has bad associations with old circus freak shows, the term is not very politically correct these days. This doesn't alter the fact that there are some amazing midget facts, which I will present to you now:

  • If You Are Under 5 Foot Tall, Then You Are Legally A Midget.
  • When Midgets Reach 30 They grow Rapidly, It Is Not Known Why.
  • You Can Fit Over A Hundred Midgets In A Mini.
  • A Midgets Genitalia Are The Same Size As Tall Persons, So Ratio Wise They Are Huge.
  • The Shortest Man In The World Is India's Gul Mohammed, Height Is 22 Inches Tall.
  • Apparently Midgets Hate Been Called, Shorty, Midget, Titch, Squirt, Action Man, Polly Pocket, Gary Coleman, Mini
  • Most Midgets refuse To Wear Childrens Clothes, Therefore They Spend Hundreds Of Pounds, On Having Clothes Made For Them.
  • A Midget Eats As Much Food As A Normal Man, But Cant Eat As Much At One Time.
  • Midgets Suck At Basketball!!!

    An Eyeful A Day Keeps The Doctor Away PDF Print E-mail

    Staring at women's breasts is good for men's health and makes them live longer, a new survey reveals. Researchers have discovered that a 10-minute ogle at women's breasts is as healthy as half-an- hour in the gym. A five-year study of 200 men found that those who enjoyed a longing look at busty beauties had lower blood pressure, less heart disease and slower pulse rates compared to those who did not get their daily eyeful.

    Dr Karen Weatherby, who carried out the German study, wrote in The New England Journal of Medicine: "Just 10 minutes of staring at the charms of a well-endowed female is roughly equivalent to a 30-minute aerobics workout. Sexual excitement gets the heart pumping and improves blood circulation. There is no question that gazing at breasts makes men healthier. Our study indicates that engaging in this activity a few minutes daily cuts the risk of a stroke and heart attack in half. We believe that by doing so consistently, the average man can extend his life 4 to 5 years."

    She added that sexy stars like Dolly Parton, Heather Locklear, Anna Nicole Smith and Demi Moore had proved to be especially good for the men's health.

    There was this guy at a bar, just looking at his drink. He stays like that for half of an hour.

    Then, this big trouble-making truck driver steps next to him, takes the drink from the guy, and just drinks it all down. The poor man starts crying. The truck driver says, "Come on man, I was just joking. Here, I'll buy you another drink. I just can't stand to see a man cry."

    "No, it's not that. This day is the worst of my life. First, I fall asleep, and I go late to my office. My boss, outrageous, fires me. When I leave the building, to my car, I found out it was stolen. The police said that they can do nothing. I get a cab to return home, and when I leave it, I remember I left my wallet and credit cards there. The cab driver just drives away."

    "I go home, and when I get there, I find my wife in bed with the gardener. I leave home, and come to this bar. And just when I was thinking about putting an end to my life, you show up and drink my poison."
