Quote by~Anonymous
Dreams are only thoughts you didn't
have time to think about
during the day.

Facts
Pretzels were originally invented for Christian Lent.
All the gold ever mined could be molded into a cube 60 feet high and 60 feet wide.
A Koala Bear sleeps 22 hours of every day.
J. Edgar Hoover liked to fire FBI agents whose palms were sweaty when shaking hands.
Mexico has more American residents than any other country except the United States.
Drivers kill more deer than hunters.

Tips
Use your microwave instead of your range: It consumes half the power and
you’ll save money on electricity of gas.
Shorten your dryer-vent hose: Your clothes will dry about 20 percent faster
& you’ll save money on power.
