What I know

Just in case you ever happened to wonder. And so I can, you know, keep track:
  • I know what Avogadro's number is for (though I'd have to look up the actual number).
  • I know that Ernest Hemingway loved cats, and more than sixty currently live on his estate in Florida. And more than half of those are polydactyl, meaning they have a few extra toes.
  • I know that the medical term for redness is erythema, and sweating is diaphoresis.
  • I know that the first two notes of "My Bonny Lies Over the Ocean" is a sixth.
  • I know that the plural of opus is opera.
  • I know that all the Central American countries became independent nations on the same day (my birthday, in fact, 135 years before I was born).
  • I know that Carita doesn't eat meat, Jill J. doesn't drink alcohol and Terri doesn't eat fried foods (except for chips and salsa, of which she is something of a connoisseur). Hey, I pay attention to my friends!
  • I know the difference between further and farther, and continual and continuous.
  • I can name all the books of the Bible, though if you ask me to I might have to sing them.
  • I can fill in the states on a blank U.S. map. Right quickly, too.
What do you know?
  • BTW, I also know I'll be able to recognize any Michael Feldman fans who answer the question.
I'm sure I'll think of more things to add. Then I'll start listing what I don't know. (Oy.)

Seriously, what do you know?
