:shock: ... :shock: ... :shock: ...

those were the facts i was searching for (and a bit more :P )

heres mine:

Did you know...
...that 1 + 1 = 3 if you don't wear a condom?
...that Journey only appears to have eight letters?
... that Gerrymandering is the
arcane and magical art of drawing

mystical boundaries over a land
to separate
their inhabitants into what are known as
“congressional districts?"

...that the only phrase that would not make a great name for a rock band is "Closed for the Summer"?

... that the iPod yocto, Apple's 1,337th digital audio player this year, is the smallest possible iPod? Its width and length are physically impossible to measure simultaneously, and it is the first known digital audio player to weigh less than air.
...Donald Duck comics were banned in Finland because he doesn't wear pants.

...When a cat is dropped, it always lands on its feet. And when toast is dropped, it always lands with the buttered side facing down. I propose to strap buttered toast to the back of a cat; the two will hover, spinning inches above the ground. With a giant buttered cat array, a high-speed monorail could easily link New York with Chicago.
