I'm not sure if this has been done before but w/e, I've had these random and useless facts stuck in my had and I just HAD to share. <<Remember kids, share EVERYTHING!! *puts on big scary preschool teacher smile*>> My little sister's teacher scares me... erm.. anywhoo! On to random facts!!


-Cows have four stomachs.

-Fish have a memory of 3 seconds.

-Delware was the first state to sign the Constitution.

-Calgary is NOT the capital of Alberta. Dammit... all this time I thought... ahh... my stupidity is FAR beyond your comprehension.

-Poppies only grow on battle fields.

-California was in the Civil War; it was part of the Union. (too many American history facts, too much Civil War... AHhhh.. I'm never going to touch that subject EVER again)

-Canada actually means 'village' or something but the explorers didn't know that; so when the Natives said 'canada' they thought it was the name of the country but they were actually trying to guide them towards their village. (at least, I think it means village.... I saw it on a Global history clip thingy a year ago... I trust Global...)


Erm. Shiez... I had so much and now I just forgot them all. Daym. GAHH!!!! I'm so messed up right now I don't even know what day it is... Anywhoo... let these random and useless facts be added to your intelligence and may it come in handy when/if you're ever on the Jepoardy game. Toodles!

And...

You got me there. I just heard it somewhere, and it just kept on coming up so I just assumed it was true. :S

I was thinking maybe...they put up a glass in the middle of the fish tank and see how long it takes the fish to forget its there. Anyone else have other ideas??

Maybe they put the fish brain in someones head. The person probably died in three seconds.
