What I know...

...so Hubby has a bathroom reader and every once and a while I pull it out to read all the fun facts. I now know that:

*Ketchup can totally clean copper
*There are 206 bones in our bodies - most of which are in our fingers and toes
*The little hairs on a roaches legs can detect a breeze from miles and miles away in order to avoid their prey
*Red Eye is caused by the blood vessels behind the eyes that reflect during the flash so in order to avoid use real bright lights to dilate the pupils first
*You grow faster in space then on earth
*If you never cut your finger nails they'd be 13 ft long on your 80th bday
*you can use cola to clean your toilet and it will likely do a better job than the cleaning products.
*Gadsby by Ernest Vincent Wright is a Story of Over 50,000 Words
Without Using the Letter “E”
(Apparently his typewriter had a sticky E key so he wrote the whole book without using that letter)

Now you know what I know!
