The term/phrase "rule of thumb" is originally from when it was legal to beat your wife with objects as long as they were no thicker than your own thumb - hence, the "rule of thumb".

Jealous??? tongue.gif

Did you know...

The fear of failure is called kakorrhaphiophobia.

The fear of Friday the 13th is called paraskavedekatriaphobia.

Worldwide, 20,000 brands of beer are brewed in 180 styles, from ales, lagers, pilsner and stouts to bitters, cream ales and iced beers.

Beer has been a popular beverage for a long time. Babylonian clay tablets show detailed recipes of beer making in 4300 BC. Beer was also brewed by the ancient Chinese, Assyrians and Incas.

An Egyptian text of 1600 BC gives 100 medical prescriptions using beer. A few years ago, the New Castle Brewery in England brewed 1,000 bottles Tutankhamun Ale from a 3,200-year old recipe found in the sun temple of Queen Nefertiti.

Well, no , apparently not, it has been proven that these babies, when grown into mums and dads etc cause genetic defects in their line of family due to their genetics...

I'm not sure how...But they do...

I didn't think having an IVF baby would modify the genetics of a baby at all! But no I know otherwise
