Issue 16 My random facts feb,21,2013


Well folks, this is my first of hopefully many random fact issues. Here I will present, well you probably guessed it, random facts....I hope you like it.

1. Did you know that the medication Vicoden (hydrocodone and similar medications) is going to become a narcotic on February 23? This means that if you wish to have a refill on this medication you will have to get a new prescription every single time from your doctor. Also, expect a longer wait if you get your medication from a busy pharmacy as only the pharmacist is allowed to touch the narcotics and count them. If you have anyone to blame for this inconvenience then blame those who abuse the medication.

2. Did you know that 100 people die from drug overdoses each day? Please be careful when taking your medication and take your medication at the same time each day to avoid such an unfortunate situation.

3. Bill O'reilly's new book is announced. It is called Killing Jesus; it follows his other two best sellers Killing Lincoln and Killing Kennedy. Look forward to a very interesting read.

4. For those who don't know..."Time, Day, and Year" is a human invention. Created originally to judge the best time to plant and harvest food, it has now become an important invention that governs our very lives. Think about it, how else you would be able to plan out your day.

And 5. Did you know the internet was originally created for the military? It was designed as a communication device in the event of a nuclear holocaust. Now though, as inventors and entrepreneurs have gotten their fingers on it, the internet has become a boom industry with no end in sight. We communicate, do financial transactions, shop, and look up information all on the internet. And through these basic functions have created massive industries and start ups that are slowly changing our world.

Hope you enjoyed my random facts issue...tomorrow will be a first in a series of 3 about restraining the government.
