So, who ever said "you learn something new every day" was so right.
Let me fill you in what I've learned on some of these days:
- The other day I learned that you CAN ACTUALLY contract tourrett''s syndrome. Well, maybe not 'contract' it, but you can have it develop in you. Apparently it's soemthign to do with a spinal injury and the way it goes to the brain or something.
- Today I actually learned 2 things:
- Bangs:
What are they? As it turns out, bangs are the locks of hair that hang in front of your face [bangs... sounds like hangs? coincidence?] A quick search in wikipedia shows that it is another term for the 'fringe.' Enjoy the picture.
- Cowlick:
Another hair thing... this is a piece of hair that has it's own ideas of non-conformity. I've lived with it and not known what it was. I would just hear the barber/hairdresser go "oh, you've got a cowlick" and then they keep on working. Is it detrimental? Well, I've lived with it without even knowing about it really... but then you've seen my hair [btw - the pic below is NOT my hair]
this is an example of a 'double cowlick'
What else have i learned? Well, I'll keep you updated. In the mean time, here's what info the canoe trip has garnished for me:
- ALWAYS pack rain gear. Trust me, a hoodie is not going to help in a HEAVY wind.
- Pack a fanny pack. They look ultra gay, but they're ultra handy.
- longer boat = more speed
- Bring plenty of 'biners. You can always find uses for them, and if not, they can just hang where you clip 'em.
In the mean time, I find a good place to learn things is: http://www.tradetricks.org/ Trust me, you'll find it cool too
