Here are Big Dave’s 5 Nuggets of Knowledge for your Noggin’ – on this Monday, February 12th, 2024. Let’s learn something together:

1. Antarctica has eight churches.  Four are Catholic, three are Eastern Orthodox and the last one is non-denominational Christian.
2. “Girls Just Want to Have Fun” was written by a DUDE.  A guy named Robert Hazard wrote it and recorded it in 1979, but it didn’t become a hit until Cyndi Lauper covered it four years later.
3. The “Alien” prequel “Prometheus” had a budget of $130 million, which would’ve been enough to fund ACTUALLY searching for real aliens for 52 years.
4. Charles Barkley missed the first game of the 1994 NBA season, because he accidentally rubbed LOTION in his eyes during an Eric Clapton concert.
5. The song “Dixie” was the Confederate anthem during the Civil War, even though it was written by a composer from Ohio.
