Useless fact of the day :

If a pin was heated to the same temperature as the center of the Sun, its heat would set alight everything within 60 miles of it.

The longest word you can make using only the top row of letters on your keyboard is TYPEWRITER.

That's from memory - I'm going off to google-disprove it now ...

And the longest word you can type with only your left hand is STEWARDESSES.

Hope he means with a 10 finger system, you know, left side of the keyboard...

Though, if he's thinking about stewardessessss, i don't want to know what the right hand is doing.

More humans have died of Malaria, than are alive in the world today.

It is to an extent, they just use different phrasing such as 'would you be so kind to.....' and 'mange tak' (spl?, been a while since i used danish as my main language) which means thank you and is used as frequent as please really.

According to the U.S. Bureau of Chemistry and Soils, your body is:

65% Oxygen (worthless - meaning that you're mostly hot air!)
18% Carbon (worthless)
10% Hydrogen (worthless)
3% Nitrogen (good for plant food)
1.5% Calcium (worthless)
1% Phosphorous (good fertilizer)
0.35% Potassium (worthless)
0.25% Sulfur (can be used to make that rotten egg smell)
0.15% Sodium (salt)
0.15% Chlorine (not enough for the backyard pool)
0.05% Magnesium (of slight value)
0.0004% Iron (I guess we can rust)
0.00004% Iodine (sell this to the medical industry)

Plus minute quantities of fluorine, silicon, manganese, zinc, copper, aluminum, and arsenic. No gold, silver, or platinum deposits.

Value of all this great stuff - less than $1.00
