Book of Facts: 1903

What you can’t see on the side here is some old masking tape that says “Book of Facts: 1903”, and I found this in a resale shop when I was seventeen and I was in this phase where I was trying to decide what was a fact and what’s just something people tell you.

…and because we talked about insomnia I’m going to tell you tell you about insomnia according to 1903. And if after this you want to know about, say, baldness, how long it takes to digest food, what carpet is made of, it’s all in here.
