Here is an "opposite" fact - most of us have heard our entire lives, "Days get shorter in the Winter, and longer in the Summer." Wrong. It's the opposite of that. The "longest" day of the year (meaning, the greatest amount of daylight hours, minutes and seconds in a 24-hour period) - is the first day of Summer. Therefore, every day of Summer is slightly "shorter" than the day before. And that is true until the first day of Winter - then the days start getting longer again.



i agree that whatever you said is "opposite of" fact.

the earth is tilted, man.
Summer has the longest day period, and more total daytime than winter lmao. where do you come up with this?

Jason Patric's grandfather was Jackie Gleason..



Jackie Gleason filmed the Toy in BR early 80’s, had his entourage in Jack Sabin’s getting loud and obnoxious. When owner Joe Distefano asked them to hold it down he pulled the “do you know who I am?”

Joe said “I do. Do you know who these people are? These are my regular customers and they are pissed off at you so you have to leave.”

The dining room applauded while his loud mouth got up cussing and left.

The Saints punter, Thomas Morestead, is one of the best ever in the NFL. He's often overshadowed by Brees but... It's true.

At the 1976 Pro Bowl, Ray Guy became the first punter to hit the Louisiana Superdome video screen. Officials raised the screen from 90 feet to 200 feet. The NFC team pulled the ball and had it tested for helium; it was filled with regular air.

In Japan a person has about the same probability of being killed by lightning as he does by gun shot.

When you are in utero, and getting oxygenated blood from your Mother, your heart has holes in between the chambers that allows the blood to flow backwards...when you take your first breath on your own the holes begin to close and blood flow reverses.
