Did You Know...
« on: April 13, 2012, 12:54:42 PM »
Humans are born with 300 bones in their body, however when a person reaches adulthood they only have 206 bones. This occurs because many of them join together to make a single bone
Most lipstick contains fish scales
One out of 20 people have an extra rib
Every three days a human stomach gets a new lining
There are six million parts in the Boeing 747-400.
Smokers are twice as likely to develop lower back pain than non-smokers
More people are killed by donkeys annually than are killed in plane crashes
A chicken with red earlobes will produce brown eggs, and a chicken with white earlobes will produce white eggs

You must be one of the originals. Eve didn't get it. LOL.
Serioue now, is it floating or attached.

Fully attached down by kidneys, not a stumpy off spine but a half length rib - I think...

I feel cheated, where did my extra bones go and who has them now, is there a bone stealer out there, was it the boogy-man my mother warned me about?
