Did you / do you know these seven facts?
1) Daniel Radcliffe was allergic to his Harry Potter glasses!
He had an allergy to nickel, and they were quickly replaced with hypoallergenic specs. Also, did you know that his glasses had no lenses? This was to stop the reflection from anything happening behind the scenes. The glass lens was added in post-production.

Interesting! Loved reading this. I did know #6. LOL! Hugs and blessings, Cindy
Fact #2 is amazing!
...I knew some of these.
I love that a single strand of spaghetti has a name. Fun post! hugs-Erika
I have a trouble believing the key to the head one.
Coffee is on and stay safe
Those are fun! I enjoyed them.
Siempre es genial aprender. Te mando un beso.
This is such a fun post. I have learned a few new things today!
I have never seen any Harry Potter films, or even read a HP book. I have a friend who holds the keys under her chin to find her car. She swears it works. Spaghetto makes sense because the singular of paparazzi is paparazzo. I enjoyed learning a few interesting facts today, Jan. Thanks.
this month has whizzed past hasn't it? Some of those facts I knew, some I didn't. The calories burned just standing amazed me.
Didn't know standing around doing nothing could be so productive.
How about squatting? That should burn more energy!
Fun post. I should do more standing around.
Take care, have a wonderful day and week ahead!
Didn't know #1 or #6!
hugs

I watched a video showing a baby panda. It's amazingly small!
Fun facts!
Hello :=)
I didn't know the H P facts, the Key ring, or the single spaghetti strand. I did know about the calories. All fun facts!:=)
All good things to know. I did, however, know about the saguaro in AZ. Plus, if you have one in your yard, you need to have it tagged indicating it was purchased from a licensed nurseryman and you didn't dig it up in the open desert and bring it home.
I didn't know any of those facts now I'll have fun spreading them around.
I loved these thanks!! -christine cmlk79.blogspot.com
I didn't know any of those!
I did not know about the spaghetto! And honestly, I'd rather not test the automatic car starter theory lol!
I'm not surprised of spaghetti-spaghetto, as I've once learnt that singular of graffiti is graffito.In reality, though, graffiti is used both for singular and for plural.
I knew 5 & 7 :)
Interesting facts!
Some interesting facts there.
Great knows!
I tell folks that offer to let me go first when shopping, no thanks beacause the longer I stand, the more calories I burn. Car key brain, that's funny!
Lo del violÃn, me es muy familiar. En cas habÃa uno , qie lo tocaba mi padre.
Buenas noches. Feliz descanso.
Interesting, thanks
this sure is interesting!!
With the present brain fog from my fever, I doubt my brain would do anything except diminish transmission ability.
I've got to try that car key thing. I had no idea about Daniel Radcliffe and the glasses!
Todo me parece interesante, algo conocÃa, pero no mucho. Besos.
very interesting - all of it and especially burning 150 calories just standing around.
Oh my goodness is #2 true? That is just freaky to me for some reason, LOL!
I have seen pictures of little Pandas they are so adorable, so strange they can grow so big starting out so small.
How interesting, especially no2!!! Who knew???xxx
What a fun and factual read Jan, just the ticket I needed with my morning cuppa. The cutting down of any healthy tree should be seen as a crime, we need to protect our precious planet.. Spaghetto made me smile.
Happy weekend Tracey x
