Hello Monday, how is everyone ?
I am well here doing nothing again. Since it is Monday it is fact day................
The liver is the largest internal organ.
On average an attack of the hiccups lasts for 5 minutes
Excavations from Egyptian tombs dating back t o 5,000 BC showed that the ancient Egyptian kids played with toy hedgehogs
About 42,000 tennis balls are used in the Wimbledon Championship
The cruise liner Queen Elizabeth 11, moves about 6 inches for every gallon of fuel it burns.
Oh my I never ever would have guessed that 42,000 tennis balls are used in the Wimbledon Championship! That is amazing.
ReplyDeleteKnew about the liver.
ReplyDeleteInteresting facts Jo-Anne, but then they always are, interesting.
Goodness! Who would have thought the number of tennis balls would be the most shocking--LOL! ;)
ReplyDeleteInteresting facts which I do not know. Amazing, the amount of tennis balls used in the championship!
ReplyDeleteHi Jo-Anne - interesting facts ... I know they use a lot of tennis balls ... also the liver regenerates itself. The QE2 - that snippet is extraordinary ... thanks for these - Hilary
ReplyDeleteDearest Jo-Anne,
ReplyDeleteYes, the liver is a large organ, though our skin is the largest organ!
Interesting those hedgehog toys for the Egyptian kids way back. Guess one creates wooden toys or whatever, in the likeness of the regional animals.
Feeling proud of my small carbon footprint as I do 33 miles per gallon in my Murano Platinum!
Hugs,
Mariette
I'll wager someone currently sitting under me would like one of those toy hedgehogs...
