Clown fish are born gender neutral. But when there are three of them two will most likely become males and the other female. And when the female is taken away, one male can change into a female but can't change back. Cool huh!
Don't the operations get expensive after a while?

Well I'm sure it can get quite pricey if you've got more than two, but lucky me and my brother have only got two. Yah, so that transgender operation hasn't been needed yet. LOL!

American beer (to me) is like having sex in a canoe (f**king close to water). Canadian beer isn't bad, but it doesn't do it for me either. German beer is more my speed. Heard of "Weihenstephaner"? They've been brewing this brand of beer for about a thousand years, so they know a thing or two. It's good beer.

I wanna try some of that beer. At what temperature is it normaly used? I'm guessing warm since refrigeration is relatively new compared to that beer.

You'd want to drink it at cellar temperature, because that's where it would be stored. I've had it when it was in the fridge for a short while and was just a bit cooler than room temp. I can't afford it on a regular basis. But I make a point of treating myself and my wife now and then. I can almost guarantee you'll like it, if you like really good beer.

Here's an old one:
Face a wall standing behind a chair and lean over resting your head against the wall and try to lift the chair and stand upright. If you're male, you won't be able to do it but get your wife or GF, any female to try it. She'll do it with no effort.
