Asterix Posted December 13, 2004 #1 Share Posted December 13, 2004 If you multiply 526,315,789,473,684,210 with _any_ number you will always find the original number in the result! No matter its size or thickness, no piece of paper can be folded in half more than 7 times. February 1865 is the only month in recorded history not to have a full moon The Boston University Bridge (on Commonwealth Avenue, Boston, Massachusetts) is the only place in the world where a boat can sail under a train driving under a car driving under an airplane An ostrich's eye is bigger than it's brain Iguanas, koalas and Komodo dragons all have two penises (Asterix's note: actually it's one, split in two parts, in the shape of letter Y. This is called hemipenes) The phrase "rule of thumb" is derived from an old English law which stated that you couldn't beat your wife with anything wider than your thumb. Link-More facts...

Dezmond Posted December 13, 2004 #8 Share Posted December 13, 2004 Cool site I really liked this one. ''It is illegal to be a prostitute in Siena, Italy, if your name is Mary. '' Probably on of the stupid things on that list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Athenian Posted December 13, 2004 #9 Share Posted December 13, 2004 (edited) Cool site I really liked this one. ''It is illegal to be a prostitute in Siena, Italy, if your name is Mary. '' Probably on of the stupid things on that list. 401872[/snapback] Not really if it shows a bad example and disrespect to the original Mary... People should stop using common names over and over, let us start being creative and eccentric when naming our offspring.

Asterix Posted December 14, 2004 Author #18 Share Posted December 14, 2004 You're welcome And by the way, about taking shower with pets, I don't, but if it was up to my cat, she would rather love that.

earthygirl04 Posted December 15, 2004 #20 Share Posted December 15, 2004 Flying from London to New York by Concord, due to the time zones crossed, you can arrive 2 hours before you leave. So a newborn can be born in London and be flown to NY, and actually be alive before the time of it's own birth....... Ok, I just confused myself.
