random

Random useless facts for the day or maybe couple of days:
  1. More people are killed annually by donkeys than die in air crashes.
  2. The phrase 'rule of thumb' is derived from and old English law which stated that you couldn't beat your wife with anything wider than your thumb. - wow. well that was thoughful.
  3. The word samba means "to rub navels together". - cute
  4. Clans of long ago that wanted to get rid of their unwanted people without killing them use to burn their houses down - hence the expression "to get fired."
