wainy days

the world's greatest thrift store find?

last weekend i made a pilgrimage to the value village in my hometown of sarnia, ontario. while perusing their wide selection of ed mcbain and danielle steele masterworks i was surprised and delighted to find a copy of michael caine's "and not many people know this, either!", a companion piece to his bestselling collection of random trivia tidbits, “not many people know that!”. i purchased the tome for the fair price of $0.99 and have been reveling in its magnificence ever since. behold the wisdom of michael caine!

- “The elephant seal is the most supple mammal.”
- “Tobacco need not be harmful. It can be turned into a valuable source of protein.”
- “The word ‘cock’ reduced modest Victorian Americans to blushing embarrassment, so the word ‘rooster’ was invented.”
- “One person in every four is Chinese.”
- “In Hawaii, the age of consent for homosexuals is fourteen.”
- “Thirteen percent of American men would like to have sex more than once a day.”
- “Two out of three of the world’s women are illiterate.”

- “Yoko Ono once made a film entirely about bottoms.”
