I'M BACK!

Sorry I took such a long break over the Holidays!  I have missed you!  Not making a great re-appearance because I can't upload pictures from my camera right now with blogger...so Useless Info will be pictureless today!  Sorry!

~  Parrots were kept at the top of the Eiffel Tower during World War I because they have an acute sense of hearing.  This enabled them to give warning of approaching enemy aircraft long before military lookouts could see or hear them.

~  About 95% of an adult jellyfish is water.

~  Bugs Bunny was the first cartoon character to appear on a U.S. postage stamp.

~  Bugsy Siegel named his Las Vegas hotel-casino complex the Flamingo after his girlfriend Virginia Hill.  It was her nickname given to her because of her flaming red hair and long legs.

~  In the world of animal hybrids, a pizzly is a cross between a polar bear and a grizzly bear.  The hybrid is sometimes referred to as a grolar bear.

Love to all!  (Hope pictures are back up and running tomorrow!)
