The book was okay though. Some parts were very interesting while some were boring. I liked the stupid thieves portion, the Words section and 15 Strange Stories entry the best. There were a lot of unuseful trivia ~ except maybe if they were asked in a game show and the prize money is 1,000,000 or more. I've read that there's a word for the space between the eyebrows on a line with the top of the eye sockets: Ophryon; that the space between the thumb and the extended forefinger is called a purlicue.
Another entry I like is Oscar Wilde's Sayings. They were really witty and I can't help but make them one of my favorites. Here are some of them"
1. I don't recognise you - I've changed a lot.
2. Always forgive your enemies - nothing annoys them so much.
3. To love oneself is the beginning of a lifelong romance.
4. I can resist anything except temptation.
5. Experience is the name everyone gives to their mistakes.
Another source of my daily cravings of trivia is www.mistupid.com.Source: The Book of Lists: The Original Compendum of Curious Information, David Wallechinsky & Amy Wallace
