Things you need to know

A friend sent me this list of things you just have to know!

  • On average, 100 people choke to death on ballpoint pens every year.Β 
  • A dentist invented the electric chair. I think he didn’t have many repeat patients.πŸ˜‚
  • TYPEWRITER is the longest word you can type using only the letters on one row of the keyboard.
  • A snail can sleep for three years.
  • The “pound” (or hashtag) key on your keyboard (#) is called an octothorpe.

You never know when you need to fill in the gap in conversation at some gathering!

Useless Catholic Trivia

My Franciscan brother, Fr. Casey Cole OFM, is a prolific producer of videos, blogs, podcasts, and all manner of digital evangelization. He has a YouTube channel, his long-time blog “Breaking in the Habit“, a podcast (Everyday Liminality), Facebook page, and more – he even has a wikipedia page!

This morning, I came across one of his new videos that I wanted to share with you – as Fr. Casey says – make sure you have 18 minutes of your life that you will never get back! If you like trivia – this video is for you. Enjoy.

Fr. Casey serves the parishioners of St. Peter Claver Catholic Church in Macon, GA
