More Americans now die from misuse of prescriptions drugs--including anti-depressants, painkillers, and sleeping pills--than from heroin and cocaine, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported.

And did you know that an elephant can eat between 300 and 600 pounds of food a day? And that it poops about 250 pounds a day?
You could use stationery made from elephant poop.
Does it smell?
