Ended - Contest - Random drawings Winners listed in wiki

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

The largest number of children born to one woman is recorded at 69. From 1725-1765, a Russian peasant woman gave birth to 16 sets of twins, 7 sets of triplets, and 4 sets of quadruplets.

Fleas can jump 130 times higher than their own height. In human terms this is equal to a 6ft. person jumping 780 ft. into the air.

If you have 3 quarters, 4 dimes, and 4 pennies, you have $1.19. You also have the largest amount of money in coins without being able to make change for a dollar.

The male seahorse has a special pouch that the female puts the eggs in. The male carries the eggs in his pouch until they hatch, he then expels all the baby seahorses and they're left to fend for themselves.

Perfect for the Lounge..

The phrase "rule of thumb" is derived from an old English law which stated that you couldn't beat your wife with anything wider than your thumb. Numchucks
