Many people believe that alcohol kills brain cells (neurons). This is true of pure alcohol but not for the diluted stuff we drink in Wine, beers and moderate spirits. An average brain has 100 billion neurons. mmmm Stella anyone? |

Re: INTERESTING FACT OF THE DAY
Each king in a deck of playing cards represents a great king from history:
Spades - King DavidHearts - Charlemagne Clubs -Alexander the GreatDiamonds - JuliusCaesar In Shakespeare's time, mattresses were secured on bed frames by ropes. When you pulled on the ropes the mattress tightened, making the bed firmer to sleep on. Hence the phrase......... 'goodnight, sleep tight.' It was the accepted practice in Babylon 4,000 years ago that for a month after the wedding, the bride's father would supply his son-in-law with all the mead he could drink. Mead is a honey beer and because their calendar was lunar based, this period was called the honey month, which we know today as the honeymoon. |
