Not so sure about interesting to others, but I found this surprising: Photic Sneezing Reflex

I thought everyone had this problem. I realized I sneeze when I stare at the sky in daylight for as long as I can remember and so do my close friends, and I just assumed it to be a typical human characteristic.

Yep, I definitely have that, although only for when I look at the sun itself. Normal lights don't make me feel like sneezing no matter how bright they are.

Many cities have BSL-n.-breed specific legislation--for dogs. Mainly pit bull type dogs.
Denver, CO is one of them.
Well guess what?
Number of dog bites and instances of dog aggression in Denver has actually gone UP since BSL took effect.
And here's a scenario:
my dog is a pit bull. yours is a lab.

My dog is sweet, friendly, soliciting petting.
Your dog is growling and snapping and pulling on the leash.

Your dog is legal in Denver.
Mine is not.
Because mine is a pit bull and yours is not.

I was stunned when I first experienced this. Five seconds between firing and hearing the round's impact on the target.

Like magic!

And yet Superman can hear the sound of a gun going off on the other sde of the world and fly thee just in time to stop the bullet from hitting its victim.

Magic!

I was so busy at work that I forget that Freddie Mercury is 66 on Wednesday.



He ruled the musical landscape both as the King and Queen. RIP.

Most of all, you have to be disciplined and you have to save, even if you hate our current financial system. Because if you don't save, then you're guaranteed to end up with nothing.
