Hey all, I'm taking a break from reading, so I would like to share this info with yall

Did you know that:
No piece of paper can be folded in half more than 7 times.
Apples, not caffeine, are more efficient at waking you up in the morning.
The word "samba" means "to rub navels together." (damn that modern latin america paper)
A 'Jiffy' is actually a unit of time for 1/100th of a second.
"Go hang a salami, I'm a lasagna hog" is a palindrome.
The phrase "rule of thumb" is derived from an old English law that stated that you couldn't beat your wife with anything wider than your thumb.
Months that begin on a Sunday will always have a "Friday the 13th."
Peanuts are one of the ingredients of dynamite.
A kiss stimulates 29 muscles and chemicals causing relaxation. Women seem to like it light and frequent, men like it more strenuous.
