    The 7 pound brain.
    The ways of Man are passing strange, he buys his freedom and he counts his change.
    Then he lets the wind his days arrange and he calls the tide his master.

      L.A HAS teams.

      Go LAKERS.

      GO AWAY RAMS. And take Georgia Frontiereri with you.

      We the people of Southern California thank St. Louis for being so stupid as to spend a quarter billion dollars or so to get them out of here.

      Its amazing the way cities will pays huge bribes to football team owners for the priviledge of having a bunch of men shorten their lives playing a game.

            Well how much DOES a Human Brain weigh? My memory said 7 pounds for an adult.

                Off hand the human brain averages 1350 cc in volume. That would result in a weight of 1.35 KG IF the brain has the same weight at water. I think the brain is a bit less dense than water. It has to be close since it is mostly water.

                So its about three pounds. Which fits with what I remember.

                  I stand corrected. I looked it up and it is 1300-1400g, or about 3 pounds. So my answer is the 3 pound brain
