The closest living relative to an elephant closely resembles a guinea pig!

The rock hyrax is a small, furry, rat-like mammal that lives in rocky landscapes across sub-Saharan Africa and along the coast of the Arab peninsula. It has been about 60 million years since their common ancestor with the elephant existed. Elephants and rock hyraxes share several common features in the toes, teeth and skull; like two tusks, and flattened nails on the tips of their digits (as opposed to claws commonly seen on other mammals).

Useless fact (hope nobody is eating)

My left arm is shorter than my right due to me smashing my ulna bone in an open fracture when I was 5 (fell off a bike and landed,elbow down on my back). Which resulted in another useless fact, I hence became right handed

The 18th was the 28th anniversary of my heart transplant. The donor heart was from a female, thus explaining why I get moody and irritable every 28 days or so.

Moss piglets are the only animal that can survive the cold, irradiated vacuum of outer space. They can go without food or water for more than 30 years, drying out to the point where they are 3% or less water, only to rehydrate, forage, and reproduce....

randy little suckers

Qantas have lost passengers. They experienced a crash early on. Just because a statement is in a movie doesn't make it a fact.
They have lost ten aircraft with 80 people losing their lives.
One aircraft was shot down during WWII. So we can't blame them for that one

Useless info:

There are no words in the English language that rhyme with silver, orange or purple (no, gurple is not a word!).

Useful info:

The longest word in the English language has 189,819 letters and is the chemical name for Titin. It takes around 3 hours to pronounce it.

The longest word in the English dictionary is Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis

It's useful info because you can act like a smarty pants when you pronounce it (my 7yo nephew and nearly 6yo niece can not only pronounce it, they can spell it..........and have done since they were 4..............nephew is auditioning for the Australian Spelling Bee on TV next year).

Useless info:

There is absolutely nothing worth watching on TV at the moment

Useful info:

It takes 35 heaped teaspoons of chocolate Quik to make 1.5 litres of chocolate milk (yes, I count them out each time!).
