If you notice your headlights are getting blurry/foggy from driving, brushing toothpaste on them will clear them up a lot.

Fun fact.  Pearls melt in vinegar.

Here is something that surprised me.  My husband was stung by a bee on top of his lip and my brother in-law was stung by a wasp on top of his head.  They were told to use toothpaste on them.  I was surprised it actually worked.  :o :o :o :wave:

I don't know if this is a "fun" fact but, more often than not, it's a TRUE fact.  White cats with blue eyes are deaf.  When a white cat has one green eye and one blue eye, the ear on the side of the blue eye is usually deaf.

I don't know how "fun" this is, but, we don't get cold from the cold. During cold months, we stay indoors more where less air circulates and therefore pass colds around easier.

I heard that shaving cream does this only on mirrors ... not sure if it would work on headlights and with the mirrors you still have to polish it on. It seems to work on my kitchen windows.
