this is all very interesting. I thought I'd add some, hope you don't mind. A dragonflies life span is 24 hours. A monkey was once tried and convicted for smoking a cigarette in South Bend, Indiana. Every person has a unique tongue print. In the great fire of London in 1666 half of London was burnt down but only 6 people were injured. Most lipstick contains fish scales. Over 1000 birds a year die from smashing into windows. The electric chair was invented by a dentist. If you toss a penny 10,000 times, it will not be heads 5,000 times, but more like 4,950. The heads picture weighs more, so it ends up on the bottom. Every time you lick a stamp, you're consuming 1/10 of a calorie. A whale's penis is called a dork. A pig's orgasm lasts for 30 minutes.
