Shamelessly stolen from another website (therefore, abdicating all responsibility for lack of factuality):
1. The blue whale is so frickin big that its tongue can weigh as much as an elephant. And a person could swim through their largest veins and arteries.
2. John Tyler, 10th president of the U.S., born 1790, has 2 currently living grandsons.
3. There's enough water in Lake Superior to cover all of North and South America with one foot of water.
4. Aldous Huxley was George Orwell's high school French teacher.
5. There are solids that are lighter than air.
6. The number of possible ways to arrange a 52 card deck is about the number of atoms in the galaxy. A good shuffle can EASILY result in a deck configuration that has never ever existed before.
7. Charlie Chaplin himself participated in a Charlie Chaplin look-a-like contest...and lost.
8. Bananas are classed as berries and are radioactive.
9. The Hubble Ultra-Deep Field image shows galaxies that are 13 billion light years away. This means that in the USS Enterprise traveling at maximum warp, it would take 13 million years to reach them.

That's pretty amazing- he was 87 when they married, and she was 19. Seems like she did it to cash in on his pension. Freeloading off a traitor, truly the American dream.
the world is in greater peril from those who tolerate or encourage evil than from those who actually commit it- Albert Einstein

#5 is definitely not true. The "solids" that are lighter than air are not really solids...they are quasi solids they are more like a balloon filled with helium.

That's ridiculous. One really fat guy would have about 52! atoms, if not him then his whole fat family.

It's not how many cards are in the deck, it is all the different possibilities for arranging them.
taking a break from cc, will be back sometime in the future.

No, he's right about the amount of arrangements. The "!" is factorial. 52! is about 10^67.
