Strange But True

[ILUVDXL]

Good Morning, everyone. Before I begin, I would like to apologize for a mistake I made in yesterday's post. Susan Lucci is NOT the daughter of Phyllis Diller. This turned out to be an internet rumor. I try to make sure my facts are correct, but because I thought it funny I ignored my innerself who was telling me it was wrong. That being said here is Tuesday's edition.

Pogonophobia is the fear of beards.

Oak trees do not produce acorns until they are 50 years old or older.

Cats have over 100 vocal sounds, while dogs have about 10.

Most Americans' car horns beep in the key of F.

Barbie's full name is Barbra Millicent Roberts.

Ralph Lauren's original name was Ralph Lifshi.

The dragonfly has a lifespan of 24 hours.

A ten-gallon hat only hold 3/4 of a gallon.

Panama hats came fron Ecuador, not Panama.

In England, the Speaker of the House is not allowed to speak.

Lincoln Logs were invented by Frank Lloyd Wright's son.

Have a great day.

One measley mistake after all the wonderful facts you've posted? Why worry about it? Obviously it's a common mistaken fact!

Great job again today!

Thanks for the facts today!

HUH! I rescued a huge dragonfly that had gotten into the Dolphin and was beating against a window trying to escape. I released it outside. I must have saved it some of the best hours of it's life
