This substance not only cools them down but also helps fight infections of the skin.FACT:In one night, an adult hippopotamus eats approximately 150 pounds of grass.FACT:Hippos can live up to 40 years in the wild.FACT:The hippopotamus has the capability to remain underwater for as long as twenty-five minutes.Because the hippopotamus devoured and trampled their crops along the nile, the ancient egyptians saw this creature as a force of destruction and a follower of SETH, the god of chaos, and hunted it from boats with harpoons.

Elsewhere in africa,a folktale told how the hippopotamus was created by god to "cut the grass" Because of the heat,the hippopotamus asked if it could stay in the water by day and cut grass at night. Although god was afraid that the hippo would eat the fish in the riner, he agreed, The hippo,however,was true to its word and only ate the vegetation.

I like the Supersuckers. And all the other music too.
I just watched a movie called "The Promise". It had amazing imagery and was an awesome story. "Hero" is still one of my favourites, along with "House of Flying Daggers"(which might be my all time favourite)and "Barfly" If you are a girl, and we have made out, you have undoubtedly been forced to watch that one with me while i was completely shittered. I'm a fucking idiot man, why am i writing this? If i came across this profile i'd be like "who is this idiot anyway?" Meh.
Some people say it's not cool to watch tv. This is cool:Pilot-"Emerson high, 1967(?). You were in my class." Woman-"I was your teacher" Pilot-"Miss Fitzhenry?"
