In 1927, a fly ball that bounced over the wall was a home run.

None of Babe Ruth's home runs that year were bounces.

The Jamician national flag is the only national flag that doesn’t contain red, white or blue in it.

Mauritania used to be the only other one until they added red stripes at the top and bottom after a couple a few years ago.

Venus is bright enough to cast shadows.

Digging a hole in the Gulf Shores sands straight through the earth doesn’t get you to China but the Indian Ocean west of Australia.

The furthest northern point of Brazil is closer to Canada than the most southern point of Brazil.

Tijuana is closer to Alaska than a good portion of southern Mexico.

It has blue. It is gold, black and green. How do we make green?

Wait, DVQ's don't know how green is made?

The moon is pretty far from earth. At certain points in its elliptical orbit, all the other planets would fit between the earth and moon.

Yeah, back in college me and my roommates drove from BR to Taos, NM for a weekend ski trip. I'm pretty sure if you add up all the hours we were gone, most of them were in the state of Texas,
