    I can't remember but I know it goes the "other" way. It's one of the things I checked when I came home from South Africa.

      And I did it in Kenya, near the equator, but there wasn't much to see (not surprisingly!).

      • Without getting up I cannot think of which way it goes here. Maybe I have never paid attention.

          • Today was a good day for me. I did nothing wrong and the Gods smiled upon me. I almost forgot what that was like.

                    You mean there are such days?

                      Sure there are. Haven't you ever seen Snow White?

                      Birds sing and help to wash dishes and hang laundry. Squirrels make the beds and little chipmunks sweep and mop the floors.

                      Oh, Wait. Those were my teenage years. Nevermind.

                          When your Dad screams at you....it is not for "nothing." When Dad screams, it puts mom in a pissy mood and she takes it out on you.

                          Find out what the "nothing" is your Dad keeps screaming at you for, and you might have a better day. ;)

                              So if you're at the equator and flushes the toilet, does the water go straight down?

                              • So I was driving today and I saw this FedEx van, with big FedEx letters painted on the back of it, just like any other FedEx van. Upon closer look, there are smaller letters below FedEx that says "express."

                                Here's my question. What the hell does that mean? Federal Express express? Why do we use redundant wordings all the time and no one complains?

                                Perfect example, ATM. Do you ever hear people say they're going to the ATM machine? What does the M stand for in ATM? MACHINE!!! Automated Teller Machine. So they're really going to the automated teller machine machine?
