(Do you know it?)
John Tyler, the 10th president, had the most children of any president: 15.
European carousels rotate clockwise, while American merry-go-rounds spin counterclockwise.
The melting temperature of bubble gum is 125 degrees Fahrenheit.

Ben Franklin wanted the Turkey to be America's national symbol on the great seal in 1782, not the bald eagle.

"Q" is the only letter of the alphabet that does not appear in any of U.S. territory or state name.
The "G" in "G-Spot" stands for Gräfenberg, a German-born doctor who studied female sexual physiology.
The consistency of your ear wax is genetic.
The Gateway Arch in St. Louis is as wide at its base as it is tall (630 feet).

Istanbul, Turkey, is the only city in the world that lies in two continents.
During Pan-Am’s heyday in the 1960s, flight attendants had to be at least 5'2",

Deipnophobia is the fear of dinner party conversations.
About five percent of the entire U.S. potato crop goes to make McDonald’s French fries.
Why do angelfish feel safe inside the mouths of hammerhead sharks?

Until last night my wife had no idea there were no polar bears in Alaska.
Penguins either.
