Kristen Morgan+Followwhy does wisconsin have the highest alcohol rates? 🍻So this map made the rounds online, and if you look closely, you’ll spot my home state of Wisconsin.

Guess it’s a known fact, but seeing it on a map really puts it into perspective. #alcoholconsumption #Wisconsin #funfacts30Share
RetroVibesOnly+FollowParents and Their Three Sets of Twins, 1920sI came across this glass negative from the 1920s of a couple posing with their three sets of twins. I had to stop and look at it for a minute. I just can't imagine having six children and half of them are twins. They say that if you want to have twins, you need to look at the mother's side of the family. The genes for hyperovulation are passed down to the woman. So, a couple who's had twins could very well have more twins. #Twins #FamilyHistory #Genetics #VintagePhotos #Discussion #FunFacts #RetroVibes 17625Share
