When humans are born, they have more than 300 bones in their body, but adults have only 206. That's because some bones fuse together as we grow.

TRUTH !!
this is mostly because you're drinking a lot less espresso than coffee- a shot, as opposed to a cup.
a cup of drip coffee has 115-175 milligrams of caffeine, compared to 100 mg. for a shot of espresso.
a 12-ounce can of coke has about 45 ml of caffeine; pepsi- 37 mg; mountain dew-55 mg; tab- 47 mg.
an ounce of chocolate contains anywhere from 8 to 25 mg.
even decaffeinated coffee provides about 3 mg of caffeine.
 
The trick question is not really correct since on the moom a day does not last 24 hours :ohmy:
 
well, duh! it's a trick question!!!
the flag is up there, 24 hours a day (our day) and it never gets saluted, at least by our general knowledge........so, nag if you must................ but try to have a little fun at the same time!
