The microwave  

 was invented after a researcher walked by a radar tube and a chocolate bar melted in his pocket.   (Good thing he did that.)





TYPEWRITER  

  is the longest word that can be made using the letters only on one row of the keyboard.   (All you typists are going to test this out)






A goldfish  

 has a memory span of three seconds. (Some days that's about what my memory span is.)




A snail  

 can sleep for three years.  (I know some people that could do this too.!)

An ostrich's eye

is bigger than its brain.

The above two Photos are of the two rivers flowing in southern part near Cape Town , South Africa .
These two river flow together and finally settle down in the Ocean. The taste of one river  water is extremely sweet whereas the taste of other river is extremely opposite (that is bitter) but they never mix. There is no physical barrier in between these rivers which stops them from  mixing together but it is the will & order of  God.
This came to be known in the starting of 20th century only where as Almighty God has mentioned the nature of these two rivers in Holy Bible & Holy Quran 1400 years back .  

Now you know more than you did before!!
