breakfastpop, great question and I have no idea, however, now I am going to research that!!! Thanks for reading and commenting!
PS; amazing stuff huh?
Wow..I never knew that about Iceland. Thanks!!
This is certainly a lot of trivia and interesting information. This is a fun read.
Interesting read.
Melinda, thank you for reading and being a wonderful supporter! I appreciate it so much!
Pamela99, how are you? Always good to hear from you! Thank you for reading, I love trivia and info like this so I can't help but to keep publishing it. Thanks for coming by, much appreciated!
daisyjae, I hope you liked it. Thanks for reading and commenting.
It's nice to know I'm above average in one thing -- trips to the bathroom in a day.
I'm worried about my bones, too!
Gad, I love this stuff, Ladybird-keep 'em coming!
'In Kentucky, it is illegal to carry ice-cream in your back pocket.' Gosh, were the lawmakers smart, or were they smart? :D
Interesting hub Ladybird33. I think that one of the great things about the world is that there is always another interesting fact or morsel of information to find out about. On the subject of Adolf Hitler's anatomy, in the UK during the war there was a very ribald song about Hitler only having one testicle, that goes on to speculate about the configuration of the rest of the German high command of the time!
Very interesting, thanks for this!
Wow they were tough in Massachusetts back in the day. Sometimes I think today's teens could do with some scary discipline like that. Thanks for a fun read Ladybird.
BTW, Italians put cafe latte on their cereal.
Immartin, it made me feel better too! We are average and that is a good thing :) Hope you are well and thank you for reading (and commenting!) My best to you.
lorlie6, how are you? You are so sweet and encouraging, I really appreciate that! Not sure about the bones either, rather interesting! Thanks for reading!!!
Feline Prophet, well, I am not so sure how smart they are, but it's a funny law no doubt! I appreciate your reading, hope you are well.
CMHpyno, I learned something new everday, had no idea there was a song about that...before my time, I guess. Little tidbits of life, explains a lot. Thanks for sharing!
Climberjames, thanks for the comment, glad you read it!!!
MPG Narratives, I agree with your comment! What is going on with some of these teens? Also, I appreciate your little tidbit, thank you for sharing, learn something new every day and I did, Thank you!
Ladybird33, this is very interesting reading. I agree that one should try to learn something new everyday.
I vaguely remember reading years ago that as a baby grows older some bones fuse together becoming one. If that is wrong, anyone feel free to correct me. Anyway, thanks for sharing some interesting information.
That's so awesome! I love this stuff!
Interesting! some of the bones are segmented in an infant and fuse together as they mature.Enjoyable reading!
mquee, you are very right! I did some research and that is correct. Hard to believe we go through that but so interesting! Thanks for sharing!
Skaditch, Thank you for reading, thrilled you enjoy and appreciate the comment!
Ben Better, I love stuff like this too. You are so right about our bones, awesome that we can actually do that! Thanks for reading and for commenting on my cool facts!
I love any fact about a hippopotamus - imagine having one of those beauties chasing you! And wow - the law in Puritan MA - putting a child 16 or over to death! I bet parents got a lot of respect.
I love hubs like this! Thanks a lot!
BKCreative, I love stuff like this so much (probably too much) but thrilled you like it (and read it). Hope you are well, haven't see you in awhile. All my best.
Very interesting. I like the way your quotes, facts, and history was so random. Thanks for sharing!
RunAbstract, thank you for reading this and for comment. I appreciate it.
very cool. I didn't know any of that stuff.
Am really cheesed that I can no longer carry ice cream in my back pocket and although it is only a law in Kentucky I am sure lawmakers worldwide will see the sense in adopting such a law..so to be on the safe side..bye bye ice cream in backpocket..oops got to go...have a hippo to outrun :)
Wow, you certainly include a mixture of material here. A few of these facts I had heard before but most of them I hadn't. I couldn't agree with you more about the importance both of history and of learning and wish more people could see how much more fulfilling life can be with a thirst for knowledge.
menneram, thank you for reading and commenting, yes, thsi was fun to research and write!
A La Carte, you are so funny and I loved your comment! I am upset too about not being able to carry my own ice cream!!! :) Weird stuff, huh? Thanks for reading and your comment, loved it!
Hi Gordon, yes, this was some weird stuff huh? thansk for commenting and I agree with your comment about just learning and knowing our history, it's so important! Thank you so much!
THANKS FOR THE AMMO!! ;-) (my know-it-all-friends) LOL
Very interesting information. I'm ready for Jeopardy now.
Why is this all so American based?
