"Did You Know?" 8/5/2011

Every Friday, I'll be posting a "Did you know?" blog entry that lists at least 3 things I learned the past week that are new to me.

• August 5 (that's today!) is International Beer Day! Kampai!
  
  
• There are about 100 things we don't know about sharks.
  
  
• Crepuscular Rays, Phosphenes, Dysania, Gynecomastia, Paresthesia are just 5 of 25 everyday things that actually have names. Learn something new and nifty today!
  
  
• Van Halen wasn't being rockstar bratty with their "no brown M&Ms" clause in their contract. The truth may surprise you.
  
  

BONUS!  There are at least 202 Star Wars shirts out in the world today. May the force be with you.
