I yawn a lot, so its not a very good judge - part of it is because i'm tired, but i also put part of it down to being asthmatic and the need to get more oxygen into my system...

yeah, i believe it to be true... only because of personal experiance

It's Difficult to Not think About the Last thing You Thought About.
Think about Pikachu for 10 seconds, then think about the ocean or something, Pikachu will comeback to your mind in some form.

Friends that turn into enemies and worry about your appearance and call you immature can become jealous and call you immature at every chance they can get.

A bit random, but today I learnt that in Blackjack the dealer must draw a card if his total is 16 or less and stop if it is 17 or more.

67% of Canadian teens know the lyrics to O Canada. This is quite disappointing, but I'm not surprised.

I learnt that the Inaccessible Island Rail is the world's smallest flightless bird, as well as the existence of Inaccessible Island which no doubt has to rank up there as one of the coolest names for an island ever.

I just learned that, in the average lifetime, a person will walk the equivalent of 5 times around the equator.

Not only that but if the dealer ends up with 16 and has to hit, it is in a players best interest to always stay at this point, rather their hand be good or bad, because there is a high chance the dealer can bust, leaving you to win the hand. :)

Look at your zipper. See the initials YKK? It stands for Yoshida Kogyo Kabushibibaisha, the world's largest zipper manufacturer.
