Useless Stats…

 One million Americans, about 3,000 each day, take up smoking each year. Most of them are children.
 In 1933, Mickey Mouse, an animated cartoon character, received 800,000 fan letters.
 There are only four words in the English language that end in "-dous": tremendous, horrendous, stupendous, and hazardous.
 If you attempted to count all the stars in a galaxy at a rate of one every second it would take around 3,000 years to count them all.
 Less than 3% of Nestle's sales are for chocolate.
 The average chocolate bar has 8 insects' legs in it.
 There are 2 credit cards for every person in the United States.
 The average person will spend 2 weeks over their lifetime waiting for the traffic light to change.

Wow, I'm really surprised by the fact about Nestle. They do sell alot of chocolate, such as the crunch bar, which is a big hit for consumers. I would imagine that more than 3% of their sales are for chocolate, but apparently not. The last fact was interesting and shocking!
