I learned this from Trivial Pursuit: EVERY human dies from the same thing! Lack of oxygen to the brain. No matter what happens to you, the reason your body actually dies is because your brain no longer gets oxygen and cannot keep the rest of the body going.

mules can't reproduce...they are a mix of a donkey and a house and cannot therefore produce offspring

LOL Cory. How did you manage to find so many good ones?

rabits reproduce in accord to the fibonacci sequence (1,1,2,3,5,8,11....)

The Sun has used approx. 1% of it's elements in fusion

typewriter is the longest word that can be spelled using only the top row of the keyboard

"Gadsby" is the only novel ever written without the use of the letter E (supposedly)

JD Salinger taught Biology at the University of Louisville (according to a book on him)

The "New" River is the oldest river in the western hemisphere, and only one of two rivers that flow south to north

"San Gral" means Holy Grail
"Sang Ral" means Blood of Christ
what was supposed to be in the Holy grail?
...the Blood of Christ

The fibonacci sequence that converges to a ratio of two sides of a rectangle, by squaring off one side and creating a curve through the square part, and continuing this, you get a logrithmic curve - which is the shape of the spiral found in pine cones and sea shells, to get the fibonacci sequence you can add up the diagonals of pascals triangle

there are only 8 planets...pluto is too small to actually be classified as a planet and is believed to have once been a moon of Neptune

an anagram for "President Clinton of the USA"
is "to copulate, he finds interns"

every jovian planet has rings..not just saturn

the sun needs a temperature of 10 Million Degrees Kelvin to complete the Fusion
It actually burns at 15 million degrees kelvin

the longest word in the english language is antidisestablishmentarianism (i think)

I'm sure I can think of better ones than ones related to math later...when I do, I'll post them....

In Lexington, Ky
It is illegal to transport an ice cream cone in your pocket.
By law, anyone who has been drinking is "sober" until he or she "cannot hold onto the ground."
