I love this fact. I've been under general anaesthtic loads and time literally stops. It's weird. There's just nothing, not even a concept of time passing, you don't even know you're unconcious. It's scarier (for me) to have the cannula put in for the anaesthesia than to be under general.

Proven in a recent study. I'm a redhead-just had spinal surgery-anesthesiologists knew about it, but not a single doctor. But it's not remaining unconscious that's a problem-that's controlled by their readouts, & they adjust. It's more about the semi-conscious state they supposedly put you in for minor procedures. I felt every cut during my cataract surgery, & don't even ask about the colonoscopy. We also require significantly higher doses of pain relief. Try convincing your idiot doctor that their normal dosage is insufficient & you're immediately pegged as a drug abuser.

The hair on redheads also pull out/or brake off easier than other colors. I know this because my friend almost died from getting her hair stuck in a mettle lathe. The only reason she lived (she was alone at the time and was found hours later) was that her hair broke off or was pulled out of her scalp.

AnnieLaurie Burke 4 years ago

Oh, yes! When I was in my early 20s, I had a horrible impacted wisdom tooth. It had to be cut out, not pulled out. Back in those bad old days (1969), docs could give you general anesthesia and do oral surgery in their office -- you didn't have to go to a hospital. When they started the anesthetic, I felt as if I were drowning, not going to sleep. It took four people to hold me down because I got violent and tried to attack the people that were “drowning” me -- tried to slug them and get out of the chair. I was pretty athletic back then. They got me under eventually. When I woke up, they told me they’d never had anyone that was so hard to get anesthetized. I didn’t remember any of it. I was so embarrassed, but my husband thought it was hilarious. He and the staff joked about it while I was still getting the surgery done.

Portugal was the first European country to really make meaningful contact with Japan, which was the easternmost heavily-populated country/region in Asia. Portugal happens to be the westernmost country in Europe.

The two words, Arigato and Obrigado, are linguistically completely unrelated.

It would only take about a month and a half to collect enough shed skin cells to completely replace the flour in a traditional pound cake recipe, about 438g. We shed about 9 lbs of dead skin each year, and 438g is only .966 lbs, so at a rate of .75 lbs of skin per month you would only need a way to collect shed skin for a little over 5 weeks. Being high in protein, your skin flour should have a consistency close to a bean flour and can be used in a similar way to make a pound cake.
It would take between five and six weeks to make a skin cake.

Rams are about the same size as football players.

The iconic curled horns of a male bighorn sheep can weigh up to 30 pounds, which is more than all the bones in his body combined.

From head to tail, rams usually fall somewhere between five to six feet long, and they tend to tip the scales at 260 to 280 pounds, occasionally exceeding 300 pounds.

During WWII, a fairly large number of Nazi-POWs were brought to the USA, tens of thousands of them, possibly hundreds of thousands. Many were required to work on American farms, and it's thought that some probably had relations with the farmers' daughters - so we likely had some number of little half-Nazi babies scattered across the US from that!

Not sure why you were downvoted for asking legit question. I actually read most content elsewhere also before it is posted here. Web scraping, web harvesting, content scraping, , call it what you will. There is very little original content posted here. So the BP staff just copies it from other sites to get traffic. Other sites generally do the same. Usually there is a source link included.Some content I have seen here has been out for years on other sites.
