This is what I’m talking about!

A Swiss adventurer this morning crossed the English Channel safely using a homemade jet-propelled wing.

I think this is amazing and in light of the current gas situation wouldn’t this be a great way to get around?

So this morning if you had the opportunity to strap this baby on would you do it?  If you knew that it could get you to where you needed to go safely, would you try this baby out?

I would.  What about you?

“Useless Friday Info”

September 26, 2008 · Leave a Comment

I just love this time of the week.

It’s when I put my nose to the grindstone and chisel out some wisdom for all the world to enjoy!

It’s not about me……it’s all about you!

So without further ado…..here is your “Useless Friday Info!”

“People eat on average 236 more calories on a Saturday”

“Stick crumpled newspaper into wet shoes to help dry them and maintain their shape”

“Substances containing high levels of protein will glow under a black light because they’re on the same ultraviolet wavelength as the black light”

“The feet contain approximately 250,00 sweat glands that excrete as much as half a pint of moisture every day”

“The oldest known human disease is leprosy.  Cases described in ancient Egypt in 1350 BC, making the disease at least 3,356 years old”

“An average beaver can cut down up to two hundred trees a year”

“On average, 42,000 balls are used and 650 matches are played at the Wimbledon tennis tournament”
