YAY!! It's Friday! My favorite day of the week! So I don't know what to post about, so I'll just post a few random facts! Sound good?
~What is called a "French kiss" in the English speaking world is known as an "English kiss" in France.
~Coca-Cola would be green if colouring weren’t added to it.
~The average lead pencil will draw a line 35 miles long or write approximately 50,000 English words.
~Beetles taste like apples, wasps like pine nuts, and worms like fried bacon.
~The elephant is the only mammal that can't jump!
~If you yelled for 8 years, 7 months and 6 days, you would have produced enough sound energy to heat one cup of coffee.
~A person cannot taste food unless it is mixed with saliva. For example, if strong-tasting substance like salt is placed on a dry tongue, the taste buds will not be able to taste it. As soon as a drop of saliva is added and the salt is dissolved, however, a definite taste sensation results. This is true for all foods. Try it!
~The fingerprints of koala bears are virtually indistinguishable from those of humans, so much so that they could be confused at a crime scene.
That's all I have for you today!
