Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?

Long story short: each and every one of us has dreamt of reaching the final question of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire. Although, I’ll never probably make the show, let alone reach the million dollar question, I would hate myself, if it’d happen and I wouldn’t be prepared.

Thats why I try to pick up a single piece of knowledge each and every day of my life. If not else I’ll know a damn lot of things, while in the rocking chair.

Tuesday: The name of the famous Lego-building blocks derives from the Danish words ”Leg godt” which translates to ”play well”.

Sunday: The famous ”Spirit of Ecstasy”, the bonnet decoration of Rolls Royce cars is sculptured after Lord Montagus scretary and lover, Eleanor. Lord Montagu, an early customer of Rolls Royce, wanted to add the sculpure on his custom made Rolls Royces bonnet.
