If you post, try to have it be something scientific or a strange fact. You can even post a crazy law, so long as it's true.



I have seventeen brothers and sisters, twenty counting the ones I've never seen. Luckily, I don't live with most of them >.>

Yay for all of the nieces and nephews that'll love me.

In Pennsylvania, it is state law that if you're in an automobile and approaching a horse-drawn vehicle or horse in general, you must pull over to the side of the road and wait for the horse to pass. If the horse is scared, you must turn off your car, take it apart piece-by-piece, and hide it in the bushes.

In my county, by law if you steal a bar of soap and are caught, you will be punished by having to wash yourself with it until it is all used up.

Sharks can detect one drop of blood in a million drops of water. They also have ears that can hear weak fish swimming around.

Let's say they're biased AGAINST green. That works better.

And now for MY fact:

Defenestration means "The act of throwing someone or something out a window."
