You didn't count on me having a double jointed shoulder...

Yes i can lick my ellbow. Without using my other hand i cannot lick all of it, however using my other hand to hold my arm infront of my body, i can lick th whole of my elbow, with the bottom of my tongue.

And no it doesn't hurt. I've only ever met one other person who can also move their arm out of their arm pit :)

Some intereseting stuff, some clear and utter bullshit. Of course a duck quack echos - it's a noise, like any other noise. In the right place, any noise will echo, as it is a sound, and follows the rules of sound (cunning that). Also, down by the river near me you can sit under the bridge and hear close by quacks echoing. :)

And yes, I did try to lick my elbow.

Thats a question, not a fact!
and is no one worried by the 25% that didn't try to lick their elbow?

I coughed and cracked a rib only a few months ago. Was a most unwelcome experience, as was having to sleep sitting up for weeks afterwards.
That'll teach me to roll em so strong.... :rolleyes:

And yes, I tried to lick my elbow too.

Ted, you can come my house and roll any time.

And I didn't, but that's only because I was at work at the time, and I already know I can if I half dislocate my shoulder.
