Ever wonder why is the sky blue or why a boxing ring is square? Well these any many other answers to random questions can be found in Don Voorhies book: The Book of Totally Useless Information. This 189 page book gives you answers that you won't need in everyday life but might find useful in a game of Jeopardy or Trivial Pursuit!

Some terms, ideas, symbols and places that you never thought of are in this book and why not know about them? You could use this information to decide against doing the norm or maybe you want to impress someone with the amount of inconsequencal information you can tell them.

I'm impressed that someone actually took the time and research to find some of the answers to questions like "Why does Morton salt use the girl under the umbrella logo?" or "Why does your skin wrinkle after a long bath?".

I'll give the book 4 Globes for that alone! It's important that people know this unimportant stuff because we can't always just react and/or say because that how it's done!
