    Some interesting facts

    I got this from an email my friend sent me, I just thought of sharing it here:

    DID YOU KNOW THAT...

    *No piece of normal-size paper can be folded in half more than 7 times

    *When cats are happy or pleased, they squeeze their eyes shut

    *Each year, about 500,000 detectable earthquakes occur in the world. About 100,000 of those can be felt and about 100 of them cause damage

    *The tongue is the only body muscle that is attached from one end only

    *Coffee drinkers have more sex than non-coffee drinkers. They also enjoy it more

    *No president of the United States was an only child for his parents

    *Pumice is the only rock that floats in water

    *During good sex, endorphins are released, which are powerful painkillers. So headaches are in fact a bad excuse not to have sex

    *The shrimp's heart is in its head

    *It is impossible to sneeze with your eyes open

    *Dutch, on average are the tallest people

    *Kissing is healthier than shaking hands

    *There are no cemeteries in San Francisco, CA

    *111,111,111 x 111,111,111 = 12,345,678,987,654,321
