Can you give us a bit of a hint?
 
The heart of a Blue whale is the size of a VW Beetle, and you could swim through some of its arteries. :o

Nelson Mandela was a terrorist.

Trivial fact because it won't be significant for 50 years, and Useless because it's pretty much useless pointing it out.

The Strawn-Wagner Diamond is the world's only perfect diamond so far found. :cool:

It was found in 1990 by Shirley Strawn of Murfreesboro, Arkansas.

It was cut to 1.09 carats in 1997, and graded a "perfect" 0/0/0 by the American Gem Society in 1998

The diamond is considered one-in-a-billion.

I'll trade for a Perth Mint 10 oz silver bar.

saying "Irish wristwatch" with any kind of speed is bloody tricky...

Trying right now, if anyone walks in on me I'm gonna sound like a right tool.

Try saying "thousandth ounce" like I did in front of the Board of Directors and CEO!!!

Since then, I rehearse all my presentations out aloud. :rolleyes:

haha, yeah I should do the same but I have always lacked the will to impress suits.
Funnily enough on the subject of directors I was pretty late to a meeting. Directors sitting down silent waiting and wanting to kill me, and all I could think of was " what? just fashionably late"

actually said it and not a smile was shown, just evil silence - most awkward moment of my life :lol:
whatever, people need to lighten the fuck up. Just as well I'm a gun at what I do or they might have said something to me :P
 
Ever pondered on the difference between a million, a billion and a trillion?

This will help....

60 seconds equals 1 minute

1 million seconds equals 12 days

1 billion seconds equals 32 years

1 trillion seconds equals 32 thousand years
 
thanks acorn I asked my mate an accountant to explain a trillion to me, your answer was so much more understandable
