Longer Eyelashes On The Way

People are always talking about science in the cab because my picture makes me look like one of those Ph.D. cab drivers, which I’m not. Well, now I’ve got some scientific information of my own. Did you know scientists are “working around the clock” to make it possible for women to grow longer eyelashes. I didn’t know that! And, they’re making progress. They’ve discovered that a side effect of using a glaucoma medication is longer lashes. The French are working on a long-lash gel which keeps eye lashes from falling out - they do that you know. The longer they are in place, the more the grow. I’m telling you, I always thought scientists would come up with something surprising. This could be it.

Rats

Botanists have found a carnivorous plant that is big enough to eat a rat. The enormous, rat-eating pitcher plant lives at the top of a remote mountain in the Philippines. It was found by a group of missionaries who had to be rescued from the mountain known locally as Rat Trap Ridge.
