Names I Use

To avoid any confusion I thought it appropriate to list the names (cyber) I go by.
My Names:
Mel Kaye-(my real name), MondayMorningPower,
MMP, Killeris-(Technorati name), Powerkis-(Wordpress name), SiFiBiBi-(Original Blogger name)
Site Names:
Attitude, The Ultimate Power-(Blog name)
MondayMorningPower-(Blog AKA)

Why read Monday Morning Power?

You will find a consistency and a focus in all of my content that can change your attitude which can fuel a positive change in your life, if you want it to. If you are happy with your attitude and your life and see no reason for changing, then you either already have a PMA (Positive Mental Attitude), or you are a victim and want to hold onto your misery. These postings will then serve to fortify the person with PMA, or, hopefully, convince the "victim" that there is a better way. This site will contain essays, poems, stories, humor and links, all with the same goal: The pursuit, capture, care and feeding of a Positive Mental Attitude. I have had readers tell me that they have spent hours on my site and feel great about themselves both during and after. I log onto my own site frequently to help fuel my attitude; I hope you will as well.

SO YOU THINK YOU KNOW EVERYTHING?

"Stewardesses" is the longest word typed with only the left hand ...


And "lollipop"
is the longest word typed with your right hand. (Bet you tried this out mentally, didn't you?)

No word in the English language rhymes with month, orange, silver, or purple.



"Dreamt" is the only English word that ends in the letters "mt".
? (Are you doubting this?)



Our eyes
are always the same size from birth, but our nose and ears never stop growing.


The sentence: "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog" uses every letter of the alphabet. (Now, you KNOW you're going to try this out for accuracy, right?)



The words 'racecar,'
'kayak' and 'level' are the same whether they are read left to right or right to left (palindromes). (Yep, I knew you were going to "do" this one.)


There are only four words in the English language which end in "dous": tremendous, horrendous, stupendous, and hazardous. (You're not doubting this, are you?)



There are two words in the English language that have all five vowels in order: "abstemious" and "facetious."
(Yes, admit it, you are going to say, a e i o u)



TYPEWRITER
is the longest word that can be made using the letters only on one row of the keyboard. (All you typists are going to test this out)



A cat has 32 muscles in each ear.



A goldfish
has a memory span of three seconds. (Some days that's about what my memory span is.)


A "jiffy" is an actual unit of time for 1/100th of a second.



A shark
is the only fish that can blink with both eyes.


A snail
can sleep for three years. (I know some people that could do this too.!)



Almonds are a member of the
peach family.



An ostrich's eye
is bigger than its brain.


Babies
are born without kneecaps. They don't appear until the child reaches 2 to 6 years of age.


February 1865 is the only month in recorded history not to have a full moon.



In the last 4,000 years, no new animals have been domesticated.




If the population of China
walked past you, 8 abreast, the line would never end because of the rate of reproduction.




Leonardo Da
Vinci invented the scissors




Peanuts
are one of the ingredients of dynamite!



Rubber bands
last longer when refrigerated.


The average person's left hand does 56% of the typing.




The cruise liner, QE 2,
moves only six inches for each gallon of diesel that it burns.


The microwave
was invented after a researcher walked by a radar tube and a chocolate bar melted in his pocket. (Good thing he did that.)


The winter of 1932 was so cold that Niagara Falls
froze completely solid.


There are more chickens
than people in the world.



Winston Churchill
was born in a ladies' room during a dance.


Women blink
nearly twice as much as men.


Now you know more than you did before!

nosmij20 said...

yeah thats right thanks for the information ... ok... thanks again .... if you have time visit my others blog site... thankssss

DubLiMan said...

Nosmij20,
You are not the only one who does this, but it strikes me as strange when I am asked to visit someone's site and they don't leave the link or their url. This is turning into a pet peeve of mine.

Unknown said...

That was a fun post, Mel. It was also instructive, just in case any of those bits of knowledge end up in Trivia Pursuit. (Does anyone still play that game?)

DubLiMan said...

Nick,
I haven't though about Trivial Pursuits in 20 years. I still have the "Baby Boomer" edition; probably buried somewhere in my garage.

Mariuca said...

LOL! Cool fun facts Mel! Dropping by to check out the new list. Have a good weekend! :)

DubLiMan said...

Mariuca,
Thanks for the visit.

i beati said...

DubLiMan said...

Hi Sandy,
I'm glad I could be of service.

Hi Mel,
What a fun way of gaining knowledge. Thanks for sharing.
"..but our nose and ears never stop growing." - now that's a bit scary :-)

DubLiMan said...

Hi Zunner,
It took a while to put this post together, but it was fun. The ears and nose thing scared me too.

What about the old english word borange for orange and splonth for month (means second from top rung of the ladder)
:)

DubLiMan said...

Hi JIC,
I appreciate the challenge, however, neither word comes up when using the on-line dictionary. I'm sure we can go into old English words, Gaelic or many other dialects and find words that rhyme, but not standard English.
