I like this thread idea a lot Roxy. Useless facts are always fun.
Did you know how octopussies change colors? Many thousands of color-changing cells called chromatophores just below the surface of the skin are responsible for these remarkable transformations. The center of each chromatophore contains an elastic sac full of pigment, rather like a tiny balloon, which may be colored black, brown, orange, red or yellow. If you squeezed a dye-filled balloon, the color would be pushed to the top, stretching out the surface and making the color appear brighter—and this is the same way chromatophores work. |

Did you know that Simon and Garfunkel's album Bridge Over Troubled Water reached #1 on both the US and the UK album charts at the same time as its title track was topping both singles charts?

Did you know that jazz legend Eric Dolphy's death was accidental and could have easily been avoided? Dolphy had gone into a diabetic coma, and when he was brought to the hospital, the staff thought he was on heroin like all the other jazz musicians and decided to let the drugs run their course. Had he been correctly diagnosed and treated, he would have survived.
