Very cool book! I love trivia stuff! The book is compilation of stuff that you kinda wonder in passing and stuff that you wouldn't even think to ask. Just all kinds of cool info.

I bought this book because one of my young friends was reading it. It's amusing enough, and I am a sucker for humourous literature. Though I wonder how much of its useless information my brain retains after all the giggle and snickers.
