I too research random things and tend to have random knowledge about things.<br /><br />ICLWAprilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08019827440946283439noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2203689317346533866.post-31255345771967953902011-08-23T01:27:55.684-06:002011-08-23T01:27:55.684-06:00I google stuff that I read or see in movies all th...I google stuff that I read or see in movies all the time... you're in good company :)<br /><br />However the beset random stuff I know tends to come from commentaries or behind-the-scenes type stuff. For example:<br />-Without A Paddle was set in Oregon USA but was shot in New Zealand.<br />-The producer of W.A.P has never seen the LOTR movies so was constantly pretending to know what people were talking about when they said "such and such scene was filmed right here!"<br />-Most fans of the Sookie Stackhous Novels were disappointed in last weeks' True Blood episode that was supposed to showcase an important romantic "shower scene" that got turned into a hallucinogenic dream.<br />-As far as all the Sci-Fi Fans go, "Firefly" should have had multiple seasons, the reason it had low ratings was because of a lack of advertising for the show so no one knew it was on until the first season was over, and canceled.<br />-New Zealand the and Pacific Northwest have similar climates, so much so that a friend of mine is growing a kiwi plant successfully.<br />-The reason Corgi's were bred to have stumpy legs was so that when herding farm animals, if the animal kicked out, they would kick over the top of the dog and not actually hit the dog.<br />-The word "Conciliar" means Of, relating to, or proceeding from a council, especially an ecclesiastical one (Thank you most recent theology read for having my look up that word)<br /><br />Sorry I've been so absent lately, I feel like I have missed a ton of posts! I've been so consumed in my own life, I lost track of a lot. It'll take me some time to catch up on the posts, but glad it looks like things are going well. Here's hoping your TTC goes smoothly (or smoothER then last time!)BleedingTuliphttp://pursuingparenthood.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2203689317346533866.post-53172776756181252802011-08-22T13:49:44.843-06:002011-08-22T13:49:44.843-06:00I love trivia.

I think 'The Big Lebowski' has 'Scarface' beat by the number of times the f-bomb is dropped (292)!<br /><br />Thanks for stopping by my blog :)Jonellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00095561475752287176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2203689317346533866.post-57267055129971860852011-08-22T11:22:10.641-06:002011-08-22T11:22:10.641-06:00I Wikipedia everything, too!
