Greetings, Its early AM and I cant sleep so I thought what a better time to sharpen my knowledge of unknown facts and catch a few stories here and there, right here on scuba board. I really dont know the times I log on to this page or the hours spent reading the different threads. But, all in all, not counting times, I cant wait till I get to work to read the latest threads on what ever might be on someones mind at the time, Like right now, at alomost 5 am. So here's a thanks to everyone posting and threading and sleeping right now. I really enjoy the information and past knowledge. Happy posting, threading and sleeping.........dont forget to eat and dive!:snore:

........... what a better time to sharpen my knowledge of unknown facts ...........:
If a statue in the park of a person on a horse has both front legs in the air, the person died in battle;
if the horse has one front leg in the air, the person died as a result of wounds received in battle;
if the horse has all four legs on the ground, the person died of natural causes
:D

The duckbill platypus can store as many as six hundred worms in the pouches of its cheeks.

The Japanese names of the three wise monkeys are: Mizaru (see no evil), Kikazaru (hear no evil), and Iwazaru (speak no evil).
