Strange Facts!!
The king of hearts is the only king without a moustache on a standard playing card!
Should there be a crash, Prince Charles and Prince William never travel on the same airplane as a precaution! Your body is creating and killing 15 million red blood cells per second! Every day 20 banks are robbed. The average take is $2,500! Some real strange ones The names of Popeye's four nephews are Pipeye, Peepeye, Pupeye, and Poopeye! When glass breaks, the cracks move faster than 3,000 miles per hour. To photograph the event, a camera must shoot at a millionth of a second! A lightning bolt generates temperatures five times hotter than those found at the sun's surface! Skepticisms is the longest word that alternates hands when typing! No piece of square dry paper can be folded more than 7 times in half! I can only get 6 Porcupines float in water! The only 15 letter word that can be spelled without repeating a letter is "uncopyrightable"! Last edited by Len; 24-03-2005 at 23:40.

Re: Strange Facts!!
OK, all posts have been merged into one.
Each one off Cafu01’s “strange facts” where originally in separate posts. Now they are in one. This post will be deleted shortly as to stay on topic. hehe Hope this helps. Last edited by Len; 24-03-2005 at 23:53. |

Re: Strange Facts!!
I take it this is were the "did u know these laws" are going too? Lets try these UK ones for a bit closer to home. Fact or fiction who knows but they are very funny!!
It is illegal to be a drunk in possession of a cow. With the exception of carrots, most goods may not be sold on Sunday. If someone knocks on your door and requires the use of your commode, you must let them enter. The severest Penaltys will be suffered by any commoner who doth permit his animal to have carnal knowledge of a pet of the Royal House (enacted by George I) It is illegal to be drunk on Licensed Premises (in a pub or bar). York Laws Excluding Sundays, it is perfectly legal to shoot a Scotsman with a bow and arrow. Chester Laws You can only shoot a Welsh person with a bow and arrow inside the city walls and after midnight. Liverpool Laws It is illegal for a woman to be topless in public except as a clerk in a tropical fish store.
