babies DO have knee caps!!!
Edward Gotlieb, M.D., Pediatrics
Wed Apr 23 20:57:54 1997
Area of science: Anatomy
Newborns do have kneecaps. Kneecaps form about the fourth month of fetal life. However, they don’t show up on x-ray very well because they’re not ossified, or bony. At this point in life, the kneecaps are made of a cartilaginous material. The growth centers surrounding the kneecap form late in developmental life in utero and may not appear until just before or just after the infant is born.
Alfred Hithcock had a belly button!!!
there may be one eyewitness description of Sir Alfred's tummy, missing its belly button due to surgery. The quote is from the actress Karen Black, whom Hitch directed in his final film, Family Plot in 1976. It is said to have appeared in the liberal monthly humor review, The Funny Times. In a story by humorist Jon Winokur, Black says Hitchcock “pulled up his shirt to show me his belly button – which he didn't have. He'd had an operation and when they sewed him up, they took it away. His belly button was gone!”
“Apparently Hitchcock had several operations in the belly area leading his doctors to sew up the belly button

#5 is not true, I have sneezed AND farted simultaneously.
Neither is #24
In a delivery, the cord is cut only once, no section is removed. Some parents choose to "bank" cord blood in case the baby were to need a transfusion.
As far as #21 goes, Elmer's glue, thinned with water, is the best milk substitute out there.

I remember swallowing a bug once. I was just out walking and this bug, I have no idea what kind it was, flew right into my mouth and became stuck to the roof. I couldn't cough it out and couldn't reach it with my tongue to dislodge it. Trying to dislodge it with my finger set off the gag reflex. I then decided that the only way to get rid of it was to swallow it, which I did. Oh, did that bug taste HORRIBLE! Also, I felt a little dizzy and feverish the rest of that day. |

Same thing with major corporations and their senior leadership. Almost all have restrictions on how many can travel on one plane. |

Did you know?
Ancient Egyptians believed the heart was the center of intelligence and emotion. They also thought so little of the brain that during mummification, they removed the brain entirely from bodies.
