Random Facts

I have compiled a list of a few of my favorite random facts. There is an app on my phone that lets you go through them, and let's just say, I had to remove it because I was staying up late and not getting anything done. Here are my favorites:

1. There is a city called Rome on every continent.

2. Eagles mate in the air-gross.

3. The Deceleration of Independence was written on hemp paper.

4. A "jiffy" is actually 1/100th of a second.

5. The average person spends 2 years of their life talking on the phone.

6. Utopia is Greek for "no where".

7. Cricket's hear through their knees.

8. A pregnant goldfish is called a twit.

9. American car horns beep to the tune of "F".

10. The slogan on the N.H. licence plate reads, "Live Free or Die." Licence plates are manufactured by prisoners in a state prison in Concord.

11. On average, showers are 101 degrees.

12. 1 in 10 people are left handed.
