There is enough fuel in a full tank of a Jumbo Jet to drive an average car four times around the world.   
If you could drive to the sun — at 55 miles per hour — it would take about 193 years   
The moon is one million times drier than the Gobi Desert.   
Just twenty seconds worth of fuel remained when Apollo 11’s lunar module landed on the moon.   
A Boeing 707 uses four thousand gallons of fuel in its take-off climb.   
The planet Saturn has a density lower than water. So, if placed in water it would float.

A night of thunderstorms means I am more tired than normal this morning.  At least it is only 2 days to the weekend.   There is some interesting racing today.  The premiership rumour mill is increasing and I am starting to get excited about the forth coming season for Spurs.  Have no idea what the team will be for the first game though.  Ghaly appears to have filled the right back role for the time being but I really  think we need to buy a couple of full backs to be able to compete.  This the position we lost a lot of goals from last season.  Lee and Staltteri being muscled off the ball to easily.
