20 things I did not know!

I should be studying for my midterm tomorrow, but here I am browsing blogs. I found this list on someone else's blog and it was titled "20 things I did not know" and I thought, hey, me neither! So here they are:

1. Birds do not pee
2. More people use blue toothbrushes, than red ones!
3. The elephant is one of the few mammals that can't jump
4. A giraffe can clean its ears with its 21-inch tongue!
5. Bats always turn left when exiting a cave
6. The praying mantis is the only insect that can turn its head
7. A person uses approximately fifty-seven sheets of toilet paper each day
8. Men are 6 times more likely to be struck by lightning than women
9. The original name for the butterfly was 'flutterby'
10. The opposite sides of a dice cube always add up to seven
11. Apples are more efficient than caffeine in keeping people awake in the mornings
