TELL ME SOMETHING GOOD: Couple strikes it rich while on vacation in a State Park

TELL ME SOMETHING GOOD: Couple strikes it rich while on vacation in a State Park

You just never know when you’re going to strike it rich.

Like this couple from California who went on a trip to Crater of Diamonds State Park in Arkansas a couple weeks ago.  It’s the only diamond mine in the U.S. that’s open to the public.  They were hoping to at least find something… and in just 40 minutes of being there, they struck it rich!

They came across a 4.38-carat yellow diamond which is the largest gemstone discovered at the site this year. They haven’t found out how much it’s worth yet, but I’m guessing it’s a lot of money.

MUNDANE MYSTERIES: Why does an itch get worse when you scratch it?

MUNDANE MYSTERIES: Why does an itch get worse when you scratch it?

You’ve probably experienced this more than a few times over the summer with bug bites. Anytime you scratch something itchy it only makes you itch worse, but why?

The reason is that it causes your brain to release serotonin, which increases the sensations all over your body. Including the sensation of the itch.

My trick for bug bites is to use your fingernail to make a “x” mark on the bite instead of scratching it. Works every time!
