Did you know- Hapax legomenon means (a thing) said only once.

(Ha, put that at the heading of kids house rules)!!

I am speechless!

 

[marksman]

Did you know - in the US there is a Rock, Sissors, Paper League that competes...

LOL

What do they compete for? A pair of scissors or a piece of rock or the latest edition of the New York Times?

 

[marksman]

We're pretty near the water and the noise when they swim by is really irritating.

Must mean you are not having a whale of a time.

 

[Josho]

Oh, sure forgot about those.
A bit classier than taping pistashio half shells to a finger, eh?

Maybe I should try that idea someday

Driving alertness aid.

Did you know - greeting someone with a handshake was originally to reveal you were unarmed.

They could have a weapon in their other hand!

If I was confronted by a Blue Whale I would want to be two miles away.

Well then, I hope you can swim at least 14 miles per hour, with bursts as fast as 30 MPH cause he gonna getcha!

I guess...Hope for a two hand clasp shake.

Located on the banks of the Kansas River, Topeka is that state's capital. The name "Topeka" is translated as "a good place to dig potatoes" in tribal language.

Did you know - the average Manuel for operating a cell phone is over 50 pages.

 

[Sabertooth]

sewen should be SOWN.

(er... sewn.)

Did you know about 50% of the world's population is Under 30 years of age.

(I think a large portion of those under 30 are being supported with necessities + (without restraint) by multiple sources, other than self-supporting themselves)

(To be fair, if birthrates are steady, 60% of those are under 18.)

Austin is famous for its population of Mexican free-tailed bats. Every year, over one million bats take residence under the Anne W. Richards Congress Avenue Bridge to roost and raise their young. Every summer evening, the bats emerge from the bridge to search for insects in hordes of tens of thousands. The spectacle draws thousands of visitors.
