NOW I KNOW delivers fun trivia facts, leading off with the Communist Invasion of Wisconsin -
that one is the best, notably for actual threatened Russian invasions in 2022
and for the fact that it actually took place in 1950 - Dairyland will never feel the same! (

Collection of entries from the daily email newsletter of the same name. Nifty nuggets of obscure material on a variety of water cooler topics. I just wish I could recall all these at will. Lots of fun. (

Some call it trivia, I call it facts. My kids refer to me as a storehouse of useless information. Facts are fascinating and so is this book as well as it's accompanying website.(www.NowIKnow.com) Do you think you know the origin of OMG? I bet you don't. Think the alphabet always had 26 letters? Wrong. Did you know Franklin D. Roosevelt searched for buried treasure on Oak Island before he became president? What do you think are the odds of surviving an atomic bomb blast? One Japanese man survived two. Over one hundred fascinating trivia facts and their surprising stories can be found in this fun book. It will provide hours of entertainment for you and no doubt impress your friends with your new found knowledge. (
