Fanta was invented so the Coka Cola company could sell a product in the Nazi occupied areas instead of coke.
The Phrase "Standing on the shoulders of giants" was said by Sir Isiac Newton, but it's true meaning is an insult to a fellow scientist, Boile (I can't spell his name but it's pronounced boil). Newton was a tall man and constantly ridiculed Boil about being short.
As A material scientist I can tell you what Glass is;
It is amn Amorphous Solid, a solid with no crystaline structure and no order to it's arangement of it's atoms. To call it a liquid was originally a misstake by someone who was told that "Amorphous solids have their atoms aranged LIKE liquids".
However, because it is amorphous solid, it "Creeps" ie. as time goes by it slowly sinks. Many metals also Creep if they are given enough time. If you go to a church that is new/old enough to have the first few metal guttering systems, the metal pipes will have sagged due to creep.
Acording to the technical definition of a birds Beak (ie from the nostril to the tip) the Kiwi bird has the shortest beak in the world even if the actual full beak is about 2 inches/10 centemeters long.
During the 2nd world war the japanese build tiny balloons with a device on them that would drop napalm on their target, thousands were made and deployed, they traveled in the jetstreams (high speed wind currents in atmosphere where most world record balloon flights take place today) and dropped their napalm on america. it was a simple trick because they were made of paper and very small amounts of metal and napalm and were therefore invisable to radar. Because America is so large with alot of empty spaces, they didn't hit many people but the idea was that if enough were made enough people would be killed that americans would be scared for their lives because of this undetecable threat.
The American goverment found out about this plot and so made a department of men who would visit the victims of these attacks and tell them that they would be arrested if they told anyone about this. This was a goverment conspiracy that is now pubic and actually very clever because there was very little chance of getting hurt but it was just like a form of propaganda that was made to scare.
But the idea of men in suits covering up crashes got warped by time and idiots until it became the story of alien invasions and the MIB.
If you could fold a peice of paper 48 times the thickness would be more than the distance of the earth to the moon.
The city of pompei was full of pornography, and the first thing they dug up when they first found pompei was a statue of Pan shagging a goat. The rudest stuff was put in a pornography museum which is still open today except only to proffessors of history. There is one vital rule in this museum; "Anyone who laughs is thrown out"
Iceland has a "P enis museum" that has p enis' from every known animal (either stuffed or castings.
Most animals have a bone in their Penis to keep it straight and to give better control over it (if you can't hold it with no hands you're gonna need help)

the largest thing a blue whale can swallow is a grape-fruit and the earth has seven moons
It has
one natural satilite and somewhere between 4000 and 12,000 artificial satilites.
I'm afraid 6 new Moons have been discovered, these are not artificial and are actually meteors that are currently trapped in an orbit around the earth (most are escaping though but they still count as moons)
OK I'll stop there for now, because this is a nerd overload but I shall return
