Some silly little things I know.

One thing that differentiates different species is the number of chromosomal pairs each have. Humans have 23 pairs of chromosomes. So does corn.

So-called empty interstellar space contains on average 1 atom of hydrogen per cubic meter.

In Japan, rich, perverted businessmen pay big yen for the saliva of schoolgirls.

Afghanistan is the Number One nation in the world, alphabetically.

There are five state capitals that begin with the letter “A”: Atlanta, Albany, Annapolis, Austin and Augusta.

The French kings’ name “Louis” is a variation of the medieval Gothic name “Clovis”

Cats have more than 100 different kinds of vocalizations, more than 10 ten times the number that dogs have.

The name “Abraham” is connected to the Aryan-Vedic-Hindu name “Brahman”. The founder of Judaism’s name breaks down to “A-brahma”, “top Brahma”, “top holy caste”.

In the original rules of the game of basketball, they had a tip-off after every made bucket. I’m guessing this didn’t last long.

    Corn has 10 pair for Tassels and 10 pair for Ears. I cannot vouch for Round-Up Ready though… 😯

    What is it with saliva and the East? Rich perverted businessmen in China love to eat Bird’s Nest Soup, which is made entirely from Cave Swifts. A kilo of the red nest variety costs $10,000 USD! :groovy:

    In space, nobody can hear you scream. 😈

    Soooo… Abraham Lincoln was a Hare Krishna? :mrgreen:

    I think they did away with the point after tip-off when Wilt Chamberlain always won the tip-offs by tipping to himself and dunking all in one motion. How do you think he scored 100 points on March 2, 1962?! ❗ ❗

    The one thing I know for sure is I know nothing for sure ~Dylan.

    Let’s see,

    1 + 1 = 2

    8 notes in an octave

    1/2 step between 3 and 4 and 7 and 8 in a scale.

    6 shot is best for squirrel hunting.

    1 6 4 5 makes a good 50s song.
