This is a follow-up to last year's runaway bestseller Now You Know ... The Book of Answers, which went through five printings and sold over 20,000 copies! Why do we shout "e;Fore"e; on a golf course? Why is confetti thrown at a wedding? Exactly how long is a "e;moment"e; or a "e;jiffy"e;? Why is breaking a mirror bad luck, and a rabbit's foot good luck?

These gems are from the original syndicated radio scripts broadcast daily to millions across Canada through the Sound Source Network of Standard Broadcasting.
