Some Amazing Facts!

Some Amazing Facts!

Hi kids,

The net is a treasure trove of lots of information - useful and otherwise. More interestingly, it also happens to be the most important source (and destination!) of trivia.

Just got a few "trivial" but supposedly "Amazing facts" from a friend (again sourced from the net according to him). Enjoy the trivia:

  • Butterflies taste with their feet
  • A duck's quack doesn't echo,and no-one knows why
  • Elephants are the only animals that can't jump
  • It's possible to lead a cow upstairs ... but not downstairs
  • Women blink nearly twice as much as men
  • It's physically impossible for you to lick your elbow
  • No word in the English language rhymes with "MONTH"
  • Our eyes are always the same size from birth, but our nose and ears never stop growing. SCARY!!!
  • All polar bears are left-handed
  • A crocodile cannot stick its tongue out.
  • A charmelion's tounge is as long as it's body
  • Almost everyone who reads this page will try and lick their elbow

Hope that the above list should keep you busy with your friends for a while!

Happy reading!

Regards,

Uncle N
