Friday's Fun Facts

Have a nice weekend.
  • Through measurements of brainwaves, scientists have determined that cats think about sex twice as much as humans.
  • In October 1994, Jeff Bezos wanted to name his new Web venture "Cadabra" -- as in "abracadabra." But his attorney convinced him that this magical moniker sounder a bit too much like "cadaver." Reluctantly, Bezos went with his second choice: Amazon.com.
  • Guinea Pigs have no natural predators.
  • In 2006, 8432 men were asked what their their three wishes would be if they came upon a magic genie. The top answers were: something to do with health/longevity (87.2 percent); wealth (50.5 percent) and world peace (48.3 percent). 12.8 percent said they would wish for better "endowment".
