11 is my lucky #. So here are...


11 Friday Facts:

1. A 1.5 oz. milk chocolate bar has only 220 calories. A 1.75 oz. serving of potato chips has 230 calories.

2. Aztec emperor Montezuma had nephew, Cuitlahac, whose name meant "plenty of excrement."

3. Aztecs believed that the sun died every night and needed human blood to give it strength to rise the next day. So they sacrificed 15,000 men a year to appease their sun god, Huitzilopochtli. Most of the victims were prisoners taken in wars, which were sometimes started solely to round up sacrificial victims.

4. Back in the mid to late 80s, an IBM compatible computer wasn't considered 100% compatible unless it could run Microsoft's Flight Simulator.

5. Banging your head against a wall uses 150 calories an hour.

6. Bees and dogs can smell fear.

7. Bees kill more people a year than sharks do.

8. Besides the genitals and the breasts, the inner nose is the only other body part that routinely swells during intercourse.

9. Both George Washington and Thomas Jefferson grew cannabis sativa (marijuana) on their plantations.

10. Broccoli and cauliflower are the only vegetables that are flowers.

11. Bullet proof vests, fire escapes, windshield wipers and laser printers were all invented by women.
