The past-tense of the English word “dare” is “durst”

A Boeing 747′s wingspan is longer than the Wright brother’s first flight.

A “jiffy” is the scientific name for 1/100th of a second


Since Scotland is in the news, here's some facts about that place:

•Aberdeen Harbour Board is Britain's oldest recorded business, founded in 1136

•Scotland was an independent country until 1603. Then the king of Scotland became king of England (not the other way round), but the two country didn't merge their governments until 1707, to form the Kingdom of Great Britain

•In 1794 Scottish engineer William Murdoch built the first-ever house to be lit by gas.

•Established in 1908, RAF Leuchars in Fife is the oldest continuously operating military air base in the world.

•Scotland provided a fair share of British Prime Ministers, among whom we find William Ewart Gladstone, the only British PM to serve four separate times, and more recently Tony Blair (1997-2007) and Gordon Brown (2007-2010).

•Notable Scottish inventions include the method of logarithms (1614), tarmac (1820), the waterproof raincoat (1823), the hot blast furnace (1828), and the pneumatic tyre (1887).

• The official animal of Scotland is the Unicorn

• Scotland has approximately 790 islands, 130 of which are inhabited

• The very first recorded appearance of the elusive Loch Ness Monster occurred in 565 AD, when a " water beast " attacked one of St. Columba's followers in the loch.

* Because of a design flaw, when Apple III owners had problems (like garbled data), they were instructed to lift the machine 3 inches and drop it to re-seat the chips on the logic board.

* Napoleon kept his hand on his stomach due to abdominal pains, not because of fashion. He died of stomach cancer.

* In 2010, when Tokyo officials went to congratulate Sogen Kato, the oldest man in the city for his 111th birthday, they instead found his skeletal remains in his bed. He was dead for 30 years and his descendants did not report his death in order to collect his pension.

* The potato chip (crisps) was thought to have been invented by a frustrated chef who had a customer complain multiple times about the thickness of his fries, so he sarcastically deep-fried razor thin slices of potato and threw some salt on it; to his surprise, the customer loved it.

* When Roman emperor Nero's wife died, he found a boy that looked like her, neutered him and had him appear in public as his wife.
