Does not ryme 100% I guess. Lets see...

Nope cant think of anything else.

Sorry.
I think slither is also "A small thin sharp bit or wood or glass or metal." & sliver is a small apartment in a flat as in the movie "Sliver"... However I also might be wrong

here's a cool fact that i stumbled across:

If you take a pair of house flies and allow them to mate and then you allow all their offspring to mate and all their offspring to mate etc...
If you have a 100% survial rate of all the offspring in the spcae of english summer (so 3 months)
there will be enough flies to cover the area of Germany 3 stories deep.
Pretty grim huh?


Another cool factoid:

A Blue Whales tongue weighs the same as an adult elephant.
The average adult human could swim down the main vein and artery connected to the Blue Whales heat!!
There are 10 types of people in this world.
Those who understand binary and those who do not.

2 random facts ..........

1. "Typewriter" is the longest word that can be typed using only one row on a keyboard.

2. Bill Paxton is the only actor to have been killed by the Terminator (in 'Terminator 1"), the Predator (in 'Predator 2') and the Alien (in Aliens).
That's quite an achievement, in my eyes.

Resurection time: LOL

Did you know that looking into the eyes of some one you like increases the attraction between that person and you?

Did you know that studies have empirically correlated loneliness with an increased risk of cancer, especially for those who hide their loneliness from the outside world?

Did you know that moving clocks are measured to tick more slowly than an observer's "stationary" clock?
