    Did you know that on the original film of Alien......the director had a novel idea to show real fear......what he did was ..........unknown to the cast he asked for pigs entrails to be put into the inside of the dummy body of one of the space ships crew.........as we know in Alien the monsters are born by them ripping through the rib cage of their victims ......the cast members knew this  but to show real fear on their faces .....when the monster popped through the dummy boddy .....the entrails exploded out covering the cast with real blood and guts.......and that done the job.....so when you see the film Alien.......thats real fear you see.

    Did you know that.........The giant gas planet Saturn is the 2nd largest .....planet ....in our solar system......But since 99.9% of the planet is a mixture of hydrogen gasses its spacific gravity measures less than water........so if we had a very big bath tub and filled it with water then popped Saturn in the bath, Saturn would float.........

    Years ago I went to  a toy museum somewhere in Lancashire and I saw a teddy from the Titanic. Anyone else seen an exhibit from the ship?

    Did you know that .....a paradox could happen if you mess with time...........  lets say like me you detest your father so much you build a time machine to beat the law by going back in time to kill your father........ok depending on two things  you are now in the past and youve done the dirty deed.....senario A...... you instantly cease to exist because the deed was done before you were born., meaning you havnt gone back in time to do the deed  so you are instantly reborn to then go back in time to do the deed......but because you have you cease to exist   but then reappear to do the deed.......etc etc etc .......senario B........you kill your father within your life time but still in the past.....you then live your life without your dad....so you dont go back in time to do thd dirty deed.......but then you will because your dad is a bad dad so back in time yoh go to do the deed.......but because youve lived a fatherless life.....you dont....but because you dont go back in time.....you will............etc etc etc.........
