Children!

Did you know the most children born to one woman was 69, she was a peasant who lived a 40 year life, in which she had 16 twins, 7 triplets, and 4 quadruplets. That's A LOT of children! I mean I like children and all, but that's a lot of work. How would you take care of that many?

Colorblind Bulls

Did you know that bulls are colorblind? So that means that the bull will charge at whatever the matador is waving. That makes me kind of sad becuase I always see the color red as the symbol for the spanish matadors, but now that dream is dead. I guess I'll just have a new dream to live by.

Yo-Yo Master!

Did you know that the Yo-Yo originated as a weapon on the Philippine Islands? That must be the reason I'm ssssoooo bad at it, because I'm not a very violent person. I think, since I didn't have a New Year's resolution, I might try to become a Yo-Yo master, because I do need a way to protect myself if something goes wrong.

New Diet!

Did you know that smelling green apples and/or bananas can help you lose weight? In one study, consisting of 3,193 people, the participants were told to sniff green apples, bananas, or peppermint scents when they became hungry. Most averaged about a five-pound weight loss per month. Smelling something good makes your brain think that you've already eaten, curbing your cravings.
