Here's a neat fact...Les Paul, or his real name, Lester William Polsfuss, the father and inventor of the Gibson Les Paul, was one of the first people to use Overdubbing in music, or layering so to speak.  Also, the oh so Famous Gibson SG was originally a Les Paul Variation, But since Les Paul disliked it, the gave it a different name.  Pretty cool things I learned when I was him for Halloween...yep.
Actually, he designed the Les Paul.  He didn't invent it.

Nope..he actually helped build it, too...not all of them, of course...And Designing a God-like guitar is the same to me, to be honest with my quite messy mind.  But yeah, he did designed and helped build...Still...He also started the Use of Wax discs for recording, rather than the original cardboard...Smart man.

Having direct eye contact without blinking or looking away for 6 seconds or more shows a desire for sex or murder...

And that's a true fact ladies and gentlemen!

The bones of full grown, adult African elephants that stood 1m high (like a big dog) have been found in Sicily (south Italy).

Hmm, that's probably different Because in a staring contest the 2 people are willingly looking at each other. To win a competition.
