Things you thought you knew!

Top of the weekend my friends! Today I wanted to share more of the "things you thought you knew".

Beginning with the chicken! Which is the only animal that's eaten before it's born and after it is dead! It's finger licking good too!!

How many millions are in a billion? The answer is one million millions! A thousand millions make a billion and one thousand billions make a trillion. There will be a test later.

In Leonardo Da Vinci's painting of the last Supper. The salt spilled on the table points to Judas. He wasn't worth his weight in salt you know?

Goodbye is a contraction of "God be with you". OMG!

By the way, "GOD" helps those who helps themselves is not in the bible. It actually came from French poet Jean de LaFontanne. He was a writer of fables and wrote it back in the 17th century. When his political society was formed in 1824. He used the phrase to encourage the middle classes to resist the government.

Here's Kodak moment. If your turds float you have too much fat in your diet.

Buffalo New York is the home of Super Bowl chicken wings. However did you know that it was also the first place to introduce. The "No left turn" traffic sign back in 1911. Well now you do!

What is the only state named after a holiday? Survey says "Florida"! So named by Ponce de Leon as "Pasquala Florida" meaning Easter Sunday!

Did you know your head movement is what causes friction against your shirt collar. Which makes static electricity in the fabric. It attracts soil out of the air. This is the peculiar rationale given by experts on why your shirt collar gets dirty!

Rope cost a lot of money in the old sailing days. So ship owners wanted sailors who could save line by splicing together bits and pieces of rope, It's where we get the expression "trying to make ends meet".

Alimony also called maintenance or spousal support, came to the Untied States with the first colonists from England. Where for centuries couples could legally separate but couldn't divorce. Since the couple technically remained married. The law required the husband to support the wife until her death. In 1979, the Supreme Court found it unconditional for state law to provide alimony for only women and ruled that awards of alimony be gender blind.

Men walk from the knee, Women walk from the hip.

It's a physiological fact that women see better in the dark than men.

Finally, the largest cell in the human body is a female's egg cell, the ovum. The smallest human cell is the a male sperm. I bet you didn't see that one coming? Donut ever forget it!
