    Not if you make up your own.

    Did you know that nearly 6% of all trivia is made up (unfactual)?
    Did you know that all (full) bubbles have a seam?  The seam is microscopic (can't be seen by the unaided eye) and will always migrate to the bottom of the bubble.
    Did you know that almost all rainbows would be complete circles if the ground didn't block them?

    I heard he tried to get his family to do it as well.  That's how he came up with his theory of relativity.

    His original theory was E=Mk2  Energy is equal to the mass of the one exercising times the weight of the ketterball squared.  BUt when he saw how fast his fat uncle moved when the heard they were giving away free donuts next door, he the "k" to a "c" (speed of light).

    The internet actually makes it easier to look for what you want. That in and of itself also makes it fun. However, knowledge is a double-edged sword. Use it for good Big D and not for bad. This post was edited by Zack at October 3, 2018 4:52 PM MDT
