RANDOM FACTS (at 5:00)

Here are some random facts for you . . .

1. "Kimono" literally translates from Japanese as "wear thing."

2. The opposite of paranoia is called pronoia . . . the belief that everyone's involved in a secret conspiracy to HELP you.

3. The average length for books on Amazon is about 64,500 words. The most "average" book is"Brave New World" by Aldous Huxley at 64,531 words . . . which means about half of all books are shorter and half of all books are longer.

4. During a conversation, the average person's turn to talk lasts two seconds, and there's only a gap of 200 milliseconds before the other person talks again. And that's true across all cultures, and even in sign language conversations.

5. The Sega Genesis version of"Mortal Kombat" outsold the Super Nintendo version five-to-one back in the early '90s . . . because the Nintendo version censored out the blood.
