1. The first roller coaster was used to transport coal down a hill. After people found that it could reach speeds up to 50 miles per hour, tourists asked to ride on it for a few cents.
Roller coasters have always been popular ... nowadays I leave them for younger family members to enjoy 😊 Question - do you/did you enjoy roller coaster rides?
I had previously read about the brain, it also weighs about three pounds in the average adult 😊 Question - did you know that it is composed of almost 60% fat?
5. Strawberries can also be white or yellow, and some can even taste like pineapples.
2. Warner Bros cancelled “Home Alone” because they didn’t want to spend $14 million on it. 21st Century Fox continued the production, and the film grossed $476 million worldwide.
I can remember seeing this film and enjoying it 😊 Question - have you seen this film? Did you enjoy it?
3. It took the creator of the Rubik’s Cube, Erno Rubik, one month to solve the cube after creating it; as of June 2018, the world record is 4.22 seconds.

...a Rubik’s Cube is too complex for me.
ReplyDeleteI didn't know that the brain was so high in fat. Perhaps calling someone a fathead isn't the insult that we thought.
ReplyDeleteI have only ever seen red strawberries. I have never attempted the Rubiks cube nor seen Home Alone.
1. I loved roller coasters in my younger days. Now, my neck is too prone to kinking.
ReplyDelete2. I love Home Alone--it's one of my favorite Christmas movies. It reminds me of the chapter in Luke when Jesus's parents left him behind in Jerusalem.
3. I'm usually good at spatial puzzles, but never could solve a Rubik's cube. In junior high, we just took them apart and put them back together,.
4. Yes--I knew the brain was mostly fat from watching Fathead.
5. I like strawberries and I like pretty much everything in their traditional colors.
Uy no lo sabía siempre es genial aprender algo nuevo. Les deseo un bu7en fin de semana.
ReplyDelete1. Absolutely not!
ReplyDelete2. Yes. I believe I've seen them all with my kids.
3. I did my best. My best was not good enough.
4. Hmmmm... No, I don't think I knew about that.
5. I've bought yellow strawberries. I prefer the red ones.

Jean, I have read that psychological studies of individual differences showed that men had greater ability to turn objects in space and spatial orientation, while women had greater mastery in language." However, these are group studies, so it does not mean that there are women with good performance in nonverbal tasks and men with good verbal prowess.
ReplyDeleteMe ha encantado tu reportaje. Las fresas me gustan rojas. Besos.

ReplyDeleteGreat fun facts! I hate roller coasters, haven't seen Home Alone, have always been defeated by the Rubix cube, had no idea re the brain and like red strawberries.xxx
