Groucho's Fact Hunt

As the saying goes, "Been there, done that." See crappy pic taken from the bridge connecting Brazil to Argentina:

Argentina to the left, Brazil to the right and Paraguay straight ahead.

Another fun fact for @Groucho ... If you live in Paraguay, are staying in Brazil to see their end of the falls, and take a road trip to Argentina to visit the now-repaired walkway to see the "Throat of the Devil" (Garganta del Diablo) and return hom at the end of the weekend you can wipe out a page and a half of your passport.

Six stamps in an 8 hour hour span.



* First link - pic of some of the Devil's throad + me in EFC black. Second is a better picture as more Garganta, less me. And by less, I mean none.
I liked Stealers Wheel's version better.

Honey is the only food that includes all the substances necessary to sustain life, including enzymes, vitamins, minerals, and water. It’s also the only food that contains pinocembrin, an antioxidant associated with improved brain functioning.

Two tablespoons of honey would fuel a honey bee flying once around the world.

Also, apparently, honey will never go off, or spoil due to age. Not sure how accurate this is but it's often repeated, and perfectly edible honey was found from around 2000 years ago at a Roman ruins excavation site.
