  2. Most of these we knew ... Know a Lot of "useless facts",... my Friends ... and others (especially kids) enjoy asking me odd questions... and almost always, we can rattle off a batch of info...
    we have wasted my entire life learning all that I could.... Amassed quite a bit of knowledge over these many years.... now all that info dies with me....
    ... but, good Sir, we still really enjoy reading lists of "Facts" , just for fun...
    an enjoyable post ....
