For those who already have children past this age, this is hilarious.

  • A king size waterbed holds enough water to fill a 2,000 sq. foot house 4 inches deep.

  • If you spray hair spray on dust bunnies and run over them with roller blades, they can ignite.

  • A 3-year-old's voice is louder than 200 adults in a crowded restaurant.

  • If you hook a dog leash over a ceiling fan, the motor is not strong enough to rotate a 42 pound boy wearing Batman underwear and a superman cape. It is strong enough, however, to spread paint on all four walls of a 20X20 foot room.

  • You should not throw baseballs up when the ceiling fan is on. When using the ceiling fan as a bat, you have to throw the ball up a few times before you get a hit. A ceiling fan can hit a baseball a long way.

  • The glass in windows (even double pane) doesn't stop a baseball hit by a ceiling fan.

  • When you hear the toilet flush and the words "Uh-oh", it's already too late.

  • Brake fluid mixed with Clorox makes smoke, and lots of it.

  • A six-year-old can start a fire with a flint rock even though a 36-year-old man says they can only do it in the movies. A magnifying glass can start a fire even on an overcast day.

  • Certain Lego's will pass through the digestive tract of a four-year-old.

  • Play Dough and Microwave should never be used in the same sentence.

  • Super glue is forever.

  • No matter how much Jell-O you put in a swimming pool you still can't walk on water.

  • Pool filters do not like Jell-O.

  • VCR's do not eject PB&J sandwiches even though TV commercials show they do.

  • Garbage bags do not make good parachutes.

  • Marbles in gas tanks make lots of noise when driving.

  • You probably do not want to know what that odor is.

  • Always look in the oven before you turn it on. Plastic toys do not like ovens.

  • The fire department in Austin has a 5 minute response time.

  • The spin cycle on the washing machine does not make earth worms dizzy. It will however make cats dizzy and cats throw up twice their body weight.
