    I don't think a fictional tv show counts as a source. I'd look that one up before declaring it a fact.

    Snopes and Wikipedia have two different answers for how Harry Houdini died.

    I learned this when I wanted to find out one day. I still don't know.

    Last night a girl who was playing a video gaming machine asked me why Crocodiles eat rocks. I told her that it was to aid in digestion. That wasn't included in the multiple choice questions, so she picked that it helps them dive deeper, which the machine said was correct. Most of the websites I've looked at so far say that it aids in digestion. A few have said other things, but nothing about diving deeper.

    Anyone know? If anyone does we can add another fact to this thread.

    Im sure all they need is thier tails to dive deeper. Are they eating rocks by mistake or on purpose? I mean, are these rocks going in while they eat gazzelles and stuff?

    Right, post a fact....um.......If you breed two hairless Chinese Cresteds the pups will die in the womb, as the hairless gene is a lethal gene. Hence you have to breed a Hairless to a Powderpuff Crested.

    Rubber bands last longer when refrigerated.

    The colder the room you sleep in, the better the chances are that you'll have a bad dream.


    The attachment of the human skin to muscles is what causes dimples.


    Cats often rub up against people and furniture to lay their scent and mark their territory. They do it this way, as opposed to the way dogs do it, because they have scent glands in their faces.


    John Kellogg invented corn flakes, for a patient with bad teeth. Charles Post invented Grape Nuts. Dr. Kellogg was the manager of a Michigan health spa and Post was a patient. The spa was founded by Sylvester Graham...inventor of the Graham cracker and pioneer of the early 1800s movement to eat more bran.
