No :( She just wanted me for my coffee shop antics, I was just a coffee buddy and no more. Bad day. Still I like the fact the factoid can be taken and used over and over, and you can change the number of granules to suit your mood.

What a story Nick.

Human birth control pills will work on gorillas.

Honey, not Twinkies, is the only food that will never spoil.

The name Wendy first appeared in the book Peter Pan. Before its publishing...no one had ever had that name.

More Monopoly money is produced every year than all the currencies of all the nations on Earth combined.

A duck's quack will not echo.

The praying mantis is the only insect that can turn its head.

The national anthem of Greece has 158 verses.

During your lifetime...you will ingest about 300 tons of food.
