F. Y. I.

Quotable
by Cyril Connolly, English literary critic and writer (1903-1974)
"Better to write for yourself and have no public, than to write for the public and have no self."

Super Gulp
A camel can drink 27 gallons of water in 10 minutes.

Rumor Has It
Napoleon carried chocolate with him on his military campaigns, and always ate it when he needed a boost of energy.

In Comparison
The monarch butterfly can discern tastes 12,000 times more subtle than those perceivable by human taste buds.

No Kidding
Zeppo Marx of Marx Brothers fame owned a patent for a wrist watch with a heart monitor.
