F. Y. I.

Quotable
by  Henry Miller, American Writer
"All growth is a leap in the dark, a spontaneous unpremeditated act without benefit of experience."

Celebrate This
Sept. 30, is Ask a Stupid Question Day.

Longstanding Habit
Male emperor penguins will stand without eating for up to two months while the female goes to feed.

Symbol Of Old
Crossing one's fingers, a modern gesture for good luck, was once used as a sign of peace among believers during ancient Christian persecution.

Far-Fetched Phobias
Globophobia is the fear of balloons popping.

True HeartBreak?
It does not actually break, but after an emotionally traumatic event, the heart is temporarily shocked by the release of stress hormones into the bloodstream.
