It's Factual!



Here are some really interesting facts that I have found. I thought this would be more interesting than posting 25 Reasons Why I Hate My Family.

1) Baskin Robbins once made ketchup flavored ice cream. It was the only vegetable flavored ice cream ever produced.

2) Swans are the only birds with penises.

3) Teeth are the only part of the human body that can not repair themselves.

4) The Bible has some 500 verses on prayer, less than 500 verses on faith and over 2000 verses on money and possessions.

5) One plain milk chocolate bar has more protein than a banana.

6) A woman in Saudi Arabia can get a divorce if her husband doesn't give her coffee. However, she still can not get a driver's license.

7) In 1945 a computer at Harvard malfunctioned and Grace Hopper, who was working on the computer found a moth in one of the circuits and removed it. Ever since then, computer "glitches" have been called bugs.

8) No word in the English language rhymes with month, purple, orange, and silver.

9) The plastic thing on the end of shoelaces are called aglets.

10) Both George Washington and Thomas Jefferson both grew cannabis satria (marijuana) on their plantations.

Only swans? So how do the rest of the birds screw?

And thanks for #5- like I needed any more excuses to pass up fruit for candy! ;)
