supercalisto So while on hoilday I was reading a very intresting history book and learnt lots of things I didnt know. One being why is the white house white? Do you know why? No looking it up now! So guys what intresting thing have you guys learnt this summer? Hmmm....I don't know this one. I'm guessing it was either because white paint was cheap or the was the last name of the guy who designed it. Well I am always learning. My brain soaks up random trivia like a sponge. Right now I am learning about local history.

I've learned a lot of things, not a lot [Read: None] would be useful in later life, though. :'D

That right and wrong it was the canadians(while still run by the english) During the canadain/usa war. The USA was trying to force the canadians to join them (they thought they were liberating them) but they didnt want to join them. I was reading a book on the history of canada

I learned alot of random stuff from Cash Cab. xD but probably my favorite thing that I learned was from Mythbusters, and that was that the best way to Tenderize meat was to put it in a dryer (with some modifications to keep the meat cool) with Ball bearings overnight.
Good News: You have tender meat.
Bad News: You need a new dryer.

I love Mythbusters. I will watch that show all day... ya know.
But my brain just can't remember that "useless" info. I'm horrible with dates, numbers, names...
I'm the worse with phone numbers and names. I'll meet somebody and then 3 minutes later, it's all lost. The only phone numbers I know by heart are my dad's (since it's been the same since like 1996) and my own. Though I do have the tendency to forget my own number once in awhile. lol.
I don't even know my bf's number by heart. If my cell phone died, I'd be done. No more friends or family. Lol.

Like for serous? You got to go underthere? I want to go underneath new york city... but that would be a little scary. I've heard of mole people living down there. anyways... so you got to go down there? It's like the show on the History Channel that is pretty ******** rad.
