oh yeah, i love the buildings, but the trees are my favorite part. well, i guess it could be both the buildings and the trees together. i mean, with all the spanish moss hanging off the really big, full trees and all the beautiful homes and businesses, it's like a victorian neighborhood or town set in a swamp! it's so cool!

I don't like the parts were there is too much spanish moss only because then it is choking the trees xp but i think spanish moss is really cool. Did you know that Spanish Moss is what "Don't let the bed bugs bite" is about?

yeah they used to stuff the beds with spanish moss and the bug would still be in it, and they would bite thus: "Don't let the bed bugs bite"

ewwy! i wouldn't want my bed stuffed with Spanish moss, even if it is soft! Bugs are just a no-no in my bed! (although when my cat sleeps with me, sometimes it can't be helped xp )

But more frequently it is referring to the bugs in Spanish Moss because that is what they had stuffed beds with. Bugs were living init and biting people when they were sleeping on it.

Here's a random fact...
During some redox reactions, electrons are transferred to another molecule causing Bioluminesence.
This happens in fireflies exposed to oxygen.
**Note this what happens when you study then vomit all your information on a piece TEST and retain the info.
Is BioChemistry cool!?

did you know that....?
-the only way to lower the boiling temperature of water is to go to higher hight than sea level?
Putting salt in water when cooking pasta has no effect on boiling temperature.
-the Kiwi is the only bird with a scence of smell
-it is also the bird with the largest egg compared to adult
