Churn Dash

 

It’s amazing what stuff can keep you awake at night. Here’s my current list:

All mammals have the same number of neck bones. Consider this next time you’re watching giraffes at the zoo.

Most clouds look soft, fluffy and LIGHT as they casually drift by over your head. But the average cloud weighs over a million pounds.

Those “dashed” white lines separating highway lanes are about ten feet long. The spaces between them are thirty feet. I wouldn’t recommend taking out a measuring tape to check this.

Mosquitoes can smell your blood type. They're twice as likely to go for Type O than, say, Type A.

Peaches and nectarines are actually the same fruit. The gene keeping nectarines from getting fuzzy is recessive.

You’re ten times more likely to be bitten by a New Yorker than by a shark. I’m not sure if this is because you’re more likely to find yourself in New York than in the ocean.
