One horsepower is the amount of energy it takes to drag a horse 500 feet in one second.You can listen to thunder after lightning and tell how close you came to gettinghit.

If you don’t hear it, you got hit, so never mind. When people run around and around in circles we say they are crazy. When planets do it we say they are orbiting. While the Earth seems to be knowingly keeping its distance from the sun, it is only centrificating.

South America has cold summers and hot winters, but somehow they still manage.Most books now say our sun is a star. But it still knows how to change back into a sun in the daytime. A vibration is a motion that cannot make up its mind, which way it wants to go.

There are 26 vitamins in all, but some of the letters are yet to be discovered. Find them all and live forever. Genetics explains why you look like your father, and if you do not, why you should.Humidity is the experience of looking for air and finding water.Rain is saved up in cloudbanks.
