  1. Two out of every three couples turn their heads to the right when they kiss.
  2. A simple peck uses two muscles; a passionate kiss, on the other hand, uses all 34 muscles in your face. Now that's a rigorous workout!
  3. Like fingerprints or snowflakes, no two lip impressions are alike.
  4. Kissing is good for what ails you. Research shows that the act of smooching improves our skin, helps circulation, prevents tooth decay, and can even relieve headaches.
  5. The average person spends 336 hours of his or her life kissing.
  6. Ever wonder how an "X" came to represent a kiss? Starting in the Middle Ages, people who could not read used an X as a signature. They would kiss this mark as a sign of sincerity. Eventually, the X came to represent the kiss itself.
  7. Talk about a rush! Kissing releases the same neurotransmitters in our brains as parachuting, bungee jumping, and running.
  8. The average woman kisses 29 men before she gets married.
  9. Men who kiss their partners before leaving for work average higher incomes than those who don't.
  10. The longest kiss in movie history was between Jane Wyman and Regis Tommey in the 1941 film, You're in the Army Now. It lasted 3 minutes and 5 seconds. So if you've beaten that record, it's time to celebrate! (source from here)

Hello everybody,

What online fanzines do you read and would recommend? I am a die hard fan of rockabilly.

For all you punkrock folks out there I recommend The Enough Fanzine. It is one of the first punk zines on the internet.

They have throusands of reviews from the most independent bands all over the world. Check them out online: [url=http://www.enoughfanzine.com]Enough Fanzine[/url]. Best of it all, they are 100% non-profit and just helping the scene!

Looking forward to your recommendations.

Cheers!
