Challenge
Give me a good tid-bit
Lemmie hear something interesting, odd, or just cool. Also, tell me how you know that nugget of what may be little known facts. Keep it rated PG, please. Short and simple is great- or a bit longer with a story is always satisfying as well. The fact must be something you already knew... no asking uncle google for help... be honest fellow wordsmiths! Start your post with 'Did you know...' and then free type that knowledgeable little crumble.
If I did not know your little known fact, I may drop ya a buck or two. :D
I will go first to set the bar.
Did you know... cashews are not actually a nut? They grow on a tree and produce fruit that sort of resembles a colored pepper (or capsaicin if you are not in the US) and on the fruit grows what people THINK is a nut, but it isn't. A quick google search can take you to a fantastic photo. I learned this from trying to tell my Gram why cashews cost more than peanuts and why there was never 'heavy cashew' in the mixed nuts she was so fond of. :)
Knowledge Tidbit
Did you know... reindeer float? Their coats are composed of two layers, one of which is hollow hairs which serve two purposes: insulation and buoyancy. The insulation comes in handy because reindeer habitat is in the far north where it's cold much or all of the year. When they migrate, some stretches of their migration path require swimming distances of several thousand miles.
