Here are Big Dave’s 5 Nuggets of Knowledge for your Noggin’ – on this Thursday, January 18th, 2024. Let’s learn something together:

1. Sissy Spacek slept in her “bloody” dress for three days while filming the prom scene in “Carrie”.  She wanted to preserve continuity instead of reapplying fake blood.
2. Cucumbers are 96% water – that’s even more than watermelons, which are 92% water.
3. The most popular song in the history of Norway is “Love Hurts” by Nazareth.  It was the number one song there for 61 STRAIGHT WEEKS in 1976 and 1977.  It never got higher than number eight over here.
4. There’s a place called Pheasant Island that’s co-owned by Spain and France.  They trade off who controls it every six months and they’ve been doing it for almost 400 years.
5. Kiwis were originally called Chinese gooseberries.  But when New Zealand wanted to export them to the United States, they changed the name because China was communist, which made them unpopular in America during the Cold War.

Be sure to share these 5 Nuggets of Knowledge for your Noggin’ with your family, friends & coworkers at some point today!
