did you know?<br />
Superstitions about black cats helped spread the Black Death.<br />
In the middle ages, people associated cats with witches and<br />
thought the devil could turn into a black cat. Masses of cats were<br />
killed, and the uncontrolled rodent population increased the<br />
spread of plague-infested fleas.<br />
The military salute comes from medieval knights raising theirs<br />
visors to see each other.<br />
The diameter of the sun is over 100 times bigger than earth's,<br />
but super giant stars are 1500 times bigger than the sun. The<br />
closest super giant star is 642.5 light-years away.<br />

KEYBOARD<br />
SHORTCUTS<br />
Ctrl+Drag<br />
There are many ways to copy a file, but this just might be the<br />
easiest. All you have to do is click on the file, hold, and drag<br />
it into its desired location. This works the same as another<br />
handy shortcut, Ctrl+C.<br />
Alt+F4<br />
This shortcut is a quick way to close a window in any<br />
program. Alt+Spacebar+C (which requires less stretching,<br />
but more keys) and Ctrl+W do the same thing. Any of the<br />
ways will allow you to close a window without using your<br />
mouse to hit the X in the upper-right corner.<br />
Ctrl+Z, Ctrl+Y<br />
Undo an action by hitting Ctrl+Z; if you change your mind,<br />
Ctrl+Y will redo the undo.<br />

A DUCK WALKS INTO A BAR.....<br />
A duck walks into a bar and asks, "Got any grapes?"<br />
The bartender, confused, tells the duck no. The duck thanks him and leaves.<br />
The next day, the duck returns and asks, "Got any grapes?"<br />
Again, the bartender tells him, "No -- the bar does not serve grapes, has never served<br />
grapes and, furthermore, will never serve grapes." The duck thanks him and leaves.<br />
The next day, the duck returns, but before he can say anything, the bartender yells,<br />
"Listen, duck! This is a bar! We do not serve grapes! If you ask for grapes again, I will nail<br />
your stupid duck beak to the bar!"<br />
The duck is silent for a moment, and then asks, "Got any nails?"<br />
Confused, the bartender says no.<br />
"Good!" says the duck. "Got any grapes?"<br />
