Things I Read Somewhere That Might Be True But Might Not Be True

I believe these to be true:

The single most common chronic disability nationwide is hearing loss.

101 Dalmatians and Peter Pan are the only Disney cartoon features where both parents are present and neither die.

The infinity sign is called a lemniscate.

If you have three quarters, four dimes, and four pennies, you have $1.19, the largest amount of money in coins without being able to make change for a dollar.

I might believe these:

American Airlines saved $40,000 in 1987 by eliminating one olive from each salad served in first class.

If you stretch a standard Slinky out flat it measures 87 feet long.

The average life span of an umbrella is 1 1/2 years.

I doubt these:

Barbie's measurements if she were life size: 39-23-33.

Isaac Asimov is the only author to have a book in every Dewey-decimal category.

You are more likely to be killed by a champagne cork than by a poisonous spider, and the average person swallows three spiders annually.

Marilyn Monroe had six toes.

The average man sweats 2 1/2 quarts every day, and produces one quart of saliva.

Didn't Sleeping Beauty have two parents? They sent her to live with the fairies as a protection, but they were both alive in the opening scene, and I don't think either died.

Hmm, Acacia, you may be right. A little research is in order. With seven children, you would think I would be hep to Disney trivia. Thanks.

Yes, you are right. Sleeping Beauty's parents were alive and didn't die.
