Time For Some More Odd Facts

Tweet

You should know me by now. I love collecting ODD facts about people, places and things. There was a king in Egypt, King Farouk, who had 100 of his automobiles painted RED. Then he made it illegal for anyone else to own a red car. It has also been reported that he also had a large collection of clocks, bottle caps and toothpaste tubes. A twelfth-century Japanese emperor named Sutoku worked for three years to copy a vast Buddhist text. Instead of using ink however, he used his own blood. There was a Chinese artist, Huang Erhnan, in the 1920s, who specialized in silk paintings, but instead of a paint brush, he used his tongue. What do you think?
