                Glad you're enjoying these. Most of them are a part of what my friends and I call our "S.O.U.K." ( Store Of Useless Knowledge ). Knowing them won't save lives, but I'll bet I might do pretty good on Jeopardy!

                Well, there won't be a quiz at the end of these, but part of the fun will be seeing how many you can retain and pass along to others. You never know when one might come in handy at a gathering!
