Oysters change their gender at least once in their lifetimes. All oysters start off as male, but most change permanently to female by the time they are a year old. Their reproductive organs produce both sperm and eggs, and they can change gender at will. It is technically possible, therefore, for an oyster to fertilize its own eggs.
Well, nothing on one of the TV sites I sometimes like to use to find programs that aren't available to me. I was looking for A Season of Notre Dame Football, but the search results at CouchTunergave me this:
When I read that, this scene from Star Wars popped into my head:
No, not talking about your political views, but telling one from the other.
Just last night I was lying down to watch some programs on my tablet; I plugged in my earphone "buds" into it, then pulled one side close to my eye so I could see if the tiny letter said "L" or "R". The first one said "R" and I stuck it in my ear...
My LEFT ear. I realized my mistake when I put the "L" one into my right ear. They're molded a little differently to better fit the slant of the ear canal and don't fit correctly if reversed. Annoyed, I switched them and turned on the tablet. I caught up on some programs, then fell asleep with the buds in my ears. At least I didn't roll over on my tablet like I've done in the past.
I get up this morning, make some coffee and rub the inside of my ear where the bud had irritated it because I slept on that side, sat down at the computer and tore off yesterday's entry on my trivia calendar and found this for today:
"One out of 4 adults can't tell their left from their right."
Hmmm....I usually don't have any trouble, but will admit to a few cases where I've had to think about it...last night's mix up wasn't typical, though. A quick search on the Internet showed that bit of trivia to be true.
