Think about this while you sit at your desk or sit in traffic: HOW MANY STEPS DO YOU THINK YOU TAKE IN A DAY?
In a 2004 study of 200 men and women, researchers determined that an average man walks about 7,192 steps per day, while the average woman takes about 5,210 steps per day.
Trust us when Web Watch tells you that those numbers are way above today’s average of around 3,000 steps per day (most likely due to Web Watch and other Internet distractions). If it helps, RECENT GOVERNMENT RECOMMENDATIONS call for a healthy person to be taking 10,000 steps per day – or about 5 miles.
What? You’re not walking 5 miles a day? Apparently, neither are a lot of other people.
However, everyone thinks they are.

And by “sleeping with a co-worker”, we mean “share a hotel room with while on a business trip”.
And this has happened to Web Watch more than once, as we’re sure it has happened to many others.
One occasion was due to a winter business trip that required a cross-country flight through a few major snow storms — resulting in delayed… then diverted flights into an overnight stay in a city with very few available hotel rooms. Luckily, our travel department found an Embassy Suites with one room available – and it allowed for all parties involved to have their own bit of privacy until the next day’s flight.
Another was just a situation where there were more people than available rooms, and everyone in the group was bunked up with another. Luckily, our hotel buddy decided to hook up with someone they had just met earlier that day, so Web Watch ended up having the entire room to ourselves all night. I suppose that this one didn’t officially count as sharing a room, but it could have been, so we’ll count it.
In any case, both of these were perfectly good, legitimate business-oriented reasons for co-workers to share a hotel room. And it ends up that Web Watch was just at the beginning of this new trend in business travel.
Monopoly Casino Slot Machine Game
If you have ever been to Las Vegas, then you should be familiar with one of the most popular slot machine game themes ever made: Monopoly. (Yes, the ubiquitious Wheel! of! Fortune! games are a more popular theme, but that’s a different article for a different day).
And when it comes to playing Monopoly – playing the Monopoly-themed slot machine is certainly one way to say that you have played the World’s Fastest Game of Monopoly.
But you would be incorrect, as the slot machine is not the board game, and when it comes to talking smack about Monopoly, it’s all about the board game.
So, Web Watch readers, we ask you this question: assuming you play exactly by the listed rules in a standard set of Monopoly, WHAT IS THE SHORTEST AMOUNT OF TIME THAT A MONOPOLY GAME CAN BE PLAYED?

Guinness World Records Video Game – Wii
Have you ever wanted to set a world record?
Sure, you’ve read through the GUINNESS BOOK OF WORLD RECORDS and contemplated what you could do for fame and infamy, whether there was any category of achievement or secret skill that you may have that would qualify for inclusion in the next edition.
And sadly, while there are thousands of possible records that are recognized as Official World Records, there are also those activities that deserve to be included in some sort of World Record Database – ANY database will do, especially when it’s something as mundane as seeing how long you could throw a ball around the apartment with your friends without letting it hit the ground.
Because until someone else comes along and does the same thing in your apartment, it’s still going to count as a world record.
If only there was some way to record and report these types of things without having to go through an official documenting body, such as Guinness.
