Chinese high-school student Zhou Chen of Nanjing has invented a special computer that can be operated by the user simply moving his or her eyeballs. the 'eyeball mouse', as he calls it, enables users to click and, for example, open a website just by looking at the screen and moving their eyes.

had to drag this lot off some internet site;

Strawberries are the only fruit with seeds on the outside.

The average strawberry has 200 seeds.

In parts of Bavaria, country folk still practice the annual rite each spring of tying small baskets of wild strawberries to the horns of their cattle as an offering to elves. They believe that the elves, are passionately fond of strawberries, will help to produce healthy calves and an abundance of milk in return.


i might try that last one.

@Zozo: here's one for yeh;

The ancient Romans believed that strawberries alleviated symptoms of melancholy, fainting, all inflammations, fevers, throat infections, kidney stones, bad breath, attacks of gout, and diseases of the blood, liver and spleen.

LIZARDS;

Mukesh Thakore, a 25 year-old Indian man, has eaten more than 25,000 lizards over the past 20 years! he first became addicted to eating the reptiles as a five year-old when, spotting a lizard in the wild, he popped it in his mouth out of curiosity. now Thakore, known locally as the Lizard Boy, devours up to 25 live lizards every day for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

I call bullcrap on this one. A fruit is defined as being the swollen ovary of a flower. Ergo: a strawberry is not a fruit, rather the seeds on the outside are fruits called achenes with contain the true seeds inside.

Similarly, the fruit of an apple is actually the woody core inside, the flesh we eat is not part of the fruit itself, being derived from the floral tube.

I want to know a weird and wonderful fact about anuses.

MA 02-08-2008 03:52 AM

as much as that amuses me, im afraid the book does not contain information on anything that may be offensive (Laser kept asking for whale dick's), but i can redirect you to someone who would gladly give you factual information about 'anuses';
