What do you call a musician with problems?

A trebled man.

Tell you what...

...you can have the spatula.

Consider it a moving away present!

It’s no big deal really. Besides...

...I’ve never really trusted it since we found it stuck to the cieling that one morning. Man...

...that was a hell of a party, though!

Walking (also known as ambulation) is one of the main gaits of locomotion among legged animals. Walking is typically slower than running and other gaits. Walking is defined by an 'inverted pendulum' gait in which the body vaults over the stiff limb or limbs with each step.

Humans became bipedal three to six million years ago. Scientists believe that humans started walking on two legs to better carry goods and to use energy more efficiently.

A person walks 65,000 miles in their lifetime – that's equivalent to walking three times around the earth.

Given that the world is about 25,000 miles in circumference and that the average walking rate is 3 miles per hour, it would take a person walking nonstop approximately 347 days to walk around the world.

The longest walk around the world was completed by a former neon-sign salesman, Jean Beliveau. He walked 46,600 miles around 64 countries. The trip took him 11 years.
