Water Cooler Talk (August 24 – August 30)

Here’s 5 interesting things you can talk about this week with your family, friends and co-workers

1: Saint John’s official first organized baseball club was formed in 1863, making the city one of the earliest hubs for the sport in Canada!

2: Fog is denser and reduces visibility more than mist. Fog reduces horizontal visibility to less than 1 kilometer, where mist allows for visibility equal to or greater than 1 kilometer.

3: A squirrels hind feet can rotate 180 degrees, allowing them to grip tree bark and run down trunks headfirst!

4: Your pupils can dilate (get bigger) by up to 45% when you look at someone you are attracted to.

5: The biggest movie at the box office in August 2006 was “Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby”, which grossed over $130 million during the month.
