A collection of odd spots, an example:
The first known contraceptive was crocodile dung, used by Egyptians in 2000 BC.Human Related Odd SpotsA foetus acquires fingerprints at the age of three months.During a kiss as many as 278 bacteria colonies are exchanged. You can stop a sneeze by pressing your tongue to the roof of your mouth. Between the ages of 30 and 70, your nose may lengthen and widen by as much as 1.5cm. One human brain generates more electrical impulses in a day than all of the world’s telephones put together. The total length of eyelashes shed by a human in their lifetime is over 30 metres.
Human thighbones are as strong as concrete. The average human will drink about 72,737 litres of water in a lifetime. Like fingerprints, everyone’s tongue prints are different. During a 24-hour period, the average human will breather 23040 times, exercise 7 million brain cells and speak 4,800 words.

Turtles and honeybees are both deaf. If you keep a goldfish in a dark room, it will eventually turn white. The bloodhound is the only animal whose evidence is admissible in an American court.

I was wondering if anyone would pick up on that. *giggles* But by the gods, those strips have some fascinating information ^0^
I realised I was keeping a list of them when I opened up a text file called' odd spots' today, and I just had to share ^_^
How were your exams?
( I failed one exam (and thus the unit 70% of the course), I left half of the exam blank, but from what I gather almost everyone left the paper blank -_-;; So, praying for the BELLCURVE!!)
Haven't finished my exams yet; still have Family Law to do on Wednesday. Had IP on Thursday and Corporations Law yesterday -- gut-feeling is saying that I did all right, but we'll see. I just want to pass and finish this degree and start /working/, damnit.
I have one more: Mathemetical Economics on Thursday. Good, gut feeling is usually good. I had corp law on Thursday, it went pretty much the way I expected to. Passed with no probs. I can understand the feeling, work=money!!
