Collecting Random Facts!

My brain is constantly curious. In addition to researching serious subjects and helpful information, I really dig random facts of all kinds. I am certain there is a spot in brain dedicated to random (mostly irrelevant) knowledge.

A few fun random facts.

  • If you are afraid of long words, you have Hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia.
  • Humans have less chromosomes than potatoes do.
  • Due to an almost 2 foot long tongue, giraffes are able to clean their own ears.
  • In the 1996 edition of Websters dictionary, there were 315 misspelled entries.
  • Squirrels can live to be up to nine years old.
  • If you put a grape in a microwave it will explode.
