Did You Know?

You may have noticed some of the trivia posts are labeled "did you know".   It might be redundant to have both that and a trivia label, but they ARE a little different, namely that when I ask "Did you know...?" it means I did not know it and found it interesting/cool.

I like to listen to a radio station out of Dallas; I tune in online b/c it's not carried out of Amarillo any more and I can't quite get the station being so far away from it. On Thursday nights, they have trivia and the host usually intros it w/ more-or-less the same thing, that we know so much stuff and when it comes up and we know the answer, it amazes us that we do know it, that we've soaked it up from somewhere via some mind osmosis.

The funny thing about all that is we went to school and everybody I know usually had problems trying to remember the class work, but we absorb this trivia and the sum of it is so much more than the class work we had to learn.

Thanks f/ posting!
