Fun Facts

Today is Tuesday.  Fun fact huh?  Then again if you are reading this in the future on a Thursday, then that fact loses a bit of its fun-factor.  Nevertheless though, I found a couple interesting facts the other day in picture form and figured that it would be ideal to use as a post.

This first one is my favorite, though it may not be true with recent developments in non-stick coatings.


As I said, this may change since a college student has developed a coating for bottles that leave little to no residue in the bottle.  Here is the video of the bottle in action.

Next is a sad but true study from Rutgers University



That is really sad that 15% of people in the US over 5 years would not have died because of smoking.  Imagine if people actually did stop smoking..

This next one is really relevant to me because I crack my knuckles a lot.


So the fact that I can crack my knuckles constantly isn't necessarily bad for me, but rather bad for you, assuming that you don't like hearing it.  I'm not saying that I'm going to be a jerk and do it all the time, but I probably won't reduce how much I do it (which isn't that often).

Finally, this last one I just found interesting.


Who knew (other than cartographers)?

Have a great day!
