| LOL strange rats!
The Nobel Peace Prize medal depicts 3 naked men with their hands on each others shoulders. Fortune cookies were actually invented in America, not China! A hurricane releases more energy in 10 minutes, than all the world's nuclear weapons combined. The cigarette lighter was invented before the match. Statistically you are more likely to be killed by a champagne cork than by a poisonous spider. | |

Stewardesses is the longest word typed with only the left hand. Shakespeare invented the word "assassination" and "bump." | |

| Cool...what app is that and does it apply for Android phones? The Paomnnehal Pweor Of The Hmuan Mnid. Aoccdrnig to a rscheearch as Cmabrigde Uinervtisy, it deosn't mttaer in waht oredr the ltteers in a wrod are, the olny iprmoatnt tihng is taht the frist and lsat ltteer be in the rghit pclae. The rset can be a taotl mses and you can sitll raed it wouthit porbelm. Tihs is bcuseae the huamn mnid deos not raed ervey lteter by istlef, but the wrod as a wlohe. The original game of "Monopoly" was circular. It costs more to buy a new car today in the United States than it cost Christopher Columbus to equip and undertake three voyages to and from the New World. One-fourth of the world's population lives on less than $200 a year. Ninety million people survive on less than $75 a year. The sentence "the quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog" uses every letter in the English language. The word racecar and kayak are the same whether they are read left to right or right to left. TYPEWRITER, is the longest word that can be made using the letters on only one row of the keyboard. Hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia is the fear of long words. A snail can sleep for 3 years. | |

| Did you know you share your birthday with at least 9 million other people in the world.
The average human eats 8 spiders in their lifetime at night.
More people are killed by donkeys annually than are killed in plane crashes.
Women blink nearly twice as much as men.
The continents names all end with the same letter with which they start.
Shakespeare invented the word "assassination" and "bump."
According to tests made at the Institute for the Study of Animal Problems in Washington, D.C., dogs and cats, like people, are either right-handed or left-handed --- that is, they favor either their right or left paws.
A giraffe can go without water longer than a camel can.
Blue whales weigh as much as 30 elephants and are as long as 3 Greyhound buses.
Crocodiles and alligators are surprisingly fast on land. Although they are rapid, they are not agile; so if you ever find yourself chased by one, run in a zigzag line. You'll lose him or her every time.
Birds do not sleep in their nests. They may occasionally nap in them, but they actually sleep in other places.
Most elephants weigh less than the tongue of the blue whale.
Butterflies taste with their hind feet.
Only female mosquitoes bite.
Mosquitoes are attracted to the color blue twice as much as to any other color. | |

| Harry Potter's lightning-bolt-shaped scar had to be applied approximately 5,800 times by makeup artists for the movies. | |

| Yeah! Imagine having that scar on your face so many times and then one day you realize it's the last time you will ever have it. I love Tonks - so sad she died, but at least she got to be with Remus Richard Harris initially did not want to accept the role of Dumbledore in the Harry Potter films. For me he was the best Dumbledore in the world I was so sad he couldn't film all of the movies. | |

| Didn't Richard Harris die at the end of the 1st or 2nd film?
The Number One character of all the Harry Potter films has to be of course, Harry Potter himself, with Hermione coming in 2nd and Ron in 3rd. | |
