What is something you learned recently?

I took my boys out to eat yesterday and made an offhand joke about opening a restaurant called "Blue Lobster" (a parody of the Red Lobster chain). Turns out that there actually are blue lobsters, but they're very rare...I had no idea there was such a thing!

that i might really miss that damn 1 cent

I had never realized that in the Rupert Holmes song "Escape" (The Pina Colada Song) the guy was responding to the GIRLFRIEND'S personal ad.

"I read the paper in bed and in the personal columns, there was this letter I read."

They're making a movie based on that song.

Raisins are just dried grapes. I never cared for them. Too sweet for my liking..

But some of my family members loved 'em. And they were always around growing up.

I just never put 2 and 2 together.

I re-learned that Third Eye Blind's song Semi-Charmed Life aka the doo-do-doo song is about meth addiction after blocking that information out for years because I love the song so much.

I found out today that Donald Sutherland die 8 month ago.

That my earlobes are not of equal size or shape....

All the blood vessels (arteries, veins, and capillaries) combined from an average adult human and laid end to end, would stretch to about 100,000 miles (according to the Franklin Institute), reaching 4 times around the globe.
Learned that from a YT video and had to ask Google for confirmation before I could believe it.
