So, finally I got some stuff from Reader's Digest (at the expense of burning a hole in my card); and one of them is this 464-page book called "Imponderables" - the answers to the most perplexing and amusing mysteries of everday life. Hmm...we shall see...
I have to hand it to David Feldman (author), that this is really an interesting book. It has questions and answers (amusing ones too), to stuff about people, animal, food and drink, customs and practices, machines and devices, everyday stuff, science and nature, sport. For people that think too much (like me), this is a good book to keep us occupied.
I'm still at the "People" section and already I'm finding things like "Why is pubic hair curly?" drawing me further into the book. The answer to it was "Pubic hair is curly because it is genetically made in a flat shape rather than in a round shape..." my my, Dr Joseph P Bark (who gave the answer) must've spent some time analysing pubic hairs. I'm more curious about his job after reading this piece about pubic hair. See where this "Imponderables" take you? It'll never end. You will keep pondering and pondering. Great!
Okay, back to za book - great so far! Didn't regret purchasing it at all! I do have a question though: which section does "heartaches" come under?
