You might be hard pressed to find something interesting about a slug. They are not the most glamorous creatures. But, since you never know when you’ll need to know something, here’s a slug tidbit… Slugs have four noses.
I’ve always found deep sea creatures fascinating. Some creatures are very dangerous despite how beautiful they appear. For instance, jellyfish are quite deadly. Speaking of jellyfish, I bet you didn’t know… A jellyfish is 95% water.
Most people aren’t fans of frogs, but I’m a little different. I think they are adorable. Especially, the brightly colored ones with strange bulging eyes. Speaking of frog eyes… Frogs can’t swallow with their eyes open.
Last week’s Thanksgiving feast has done serious damage to your diet. Now is the perfect time to try a few new weight loss tricks to take off the extra pounds… You will burn about 7 percent more calories walking on hard dirt than on pavement.
It’s the season for giving thanks and gathering loved ones together. Turkeys are being talked about quite a bit as well. Since turkeys are getting so much Thanksgiving attention, you might find it interesting to know… Only male turkeys gobble.
At this time of year, a lot of attention is paid to the often ignored turkey. Granted, it’s not a particularly glamourous animal, however, it can move rather impressively when it needs to. Feel free to share this little fact at your Thanksgiving dinner table… A turkey can run 20 miles per hour.
Some of the best television shows ever made were from years ago and are no longer in production. “The Honeymooners,” “All in the Family,” and “The Cosby Show” are just a few examples. However, I bet you didn’t know… The first TV show to ever be put into reruns was “The Lone Ranger.”
We could talk for hours about all the little tricks people share to burn calories and lose weight. However, no matter how many calories you stand to burn doing this, I don’t think anyone would recommend it… Frowning burns more calories than smiling.
I know you’ve heard some weird things over the years. But, when it comes to animals, this is probably the weirdest thing you’ve never heard… A duck’s quack doesn’t echo.
We all would love a short-cut to shedding unwanted pounds. The motivation to exercise and eat healthy is just not always there everyday. Maybe its not about a magic solution, but instead, knowing some of the built-in tricks that already exist… You burn more calories sleeping, than you do watching tv.
When in school, my favorite subject was U.S. History. I loved it all – war statistics, government policies, Presidential facts, etc. Speaking of Presidents… Theodore Roosevelt was the only President blind in one eye.
We just had an election, and the field of Republican presidential candidates have been keeping us very entertained lately. Staying with the political theme, I thought I’d share a very unique election fact… Texas is the only state that permits residents to cast absentee ballots from space.
