Ground Breaking

Did you know?...

If a statue in a park of a person on a horse has both front legs in the air, the person died in battle.  If the horse has one front leg in the air, the person died as a result of wounds received in battle.  If the horse has all four legs on the ground, the person died of natural causes.

In English pubs, ale is ordered by the pints and quarts.  So in old England, when customers got unruly, the bartender would yell at them, “Mind your pints and quarts, and settle down.”  This is where we get the phrase “mind your P’s and Q’s”

111,111,111 x  111,111,111 =12,345,678,987,654,321

By raising your legs slowly and lying on your back, you cannot sink into quick sand.

If you place a tiny amount of liquor on a scorpion, it will instantly go mad and sting itself to death.

The very first bomb dropped by the Allies in World War II killed the only elephant in the Berlin Zoo.

A rat can last longer without water than a camel.

Last but not least,
A raisin dropped in a glass of fresh champagne will bounce up and down continuously from the bottom to the top.

Very interesting stuff, try out the raisin one so we know if it is true or not.
 
Sleep well, Stay strong and most of all NEVER CONFORM!
