    Mental Floss

    I love reading the book. It has a lot of information that I probably will never need but it's fun reading it and knowing it. It's sort of like a bathroom reader. I've also subscribed to the magazine of the same name. Thanks.

    If you want to know it all

    Now I know where my know-it-all friend is getting all his random information from!! It's a fun read, but I think I recognized a few direct quotes from this book in things that he's said!!! I won't be spouting facts like he does in conversation, but at least I've got the facts.
