OK, So I have 5 shirts to give out...and here's how you can win one. Whee


I like fun (and/or weird) facts ( and I need entertaining) so go find some interesting and hopefully weird facts to post in this thread.

I will choose 5 (plus a few more for backups) numbers before I post this thread....then I will look through the thread and see if a fun fact falls on the number...if it's just chatter in that post and no fun fact then I will choose another. Only one shirt per person so if the winning number falls on your post twice...I will choose another.

Reposts won't count so if someone does a repost be sure to call it out laugh out loud Stick Out Tongue But don't all go crazy calling them out since that doesn't help you win a shirt.

Try not to clutter up the thread too much with chatter because I really want to read some interesting things today.

This might end later today or maybe tomorrow... or maybe the end of the week.



The contest has ended...Winners in wiki...but since I don't trust half of you I am also listing them here. Stick Out Tongue

Texas is the only state in the union that has the option to split off parts of Texas, making up to four additional states, should the voters in Texas choose to do so.

In Pompeii, they put small cat eye shaped chips of white marble in the walkways to reflect moonlight and candlelight so you could see where you were going at night.

The Romans invented fast food. Recent digs in Pompeii have uncovered 'fast food' stores that were like a mix of modern day kitchens/pubs where you could sit on benches to eat or take the food home. They realized what it was after noticing that many homes in Pompeii didn't have kitchens or anywhere to prepare food, only a warming device to reheat food.





I've been listening to the Rick Steves podcasts lately. laugh out loud
