Ok it may be obvious but try asking someone what Winnie the Pooh's middle name is.....tee hee everyone says "don't know"
Look!! that's all I've got everything else seems to be covered

1) The Latin translation is entitled Winnie ille Pooh. As Latin doesn't have a definite article, they were forced to use ille.
2) What does the J stand for in Homer J Simpson?

In Revenge of the Sith there is apparently a Kitchen sink in one of the space scenes and in Attack of the Clones one of those space cows on Naboo is in the Asteroid field when Jango is chasing Obi Wan

Many think the Bee Gees were born in Australia. In fact they originate from 51 Keppel Road, Chorlton-***-Hardy, Manchester, M21 0BP.
Edit

Not quite. It's about 5 times the mass of the earth, it has a "year" of a few days and it orbits a dwarf star.

Re: does anyone have any weird facts?
When an anti-homosexuality bill was brought before her to sign, Queen Victoria refused to believe in the existence of such a thing as lesbianism. She struck out all references to sex between women in the bill, and to this day female homosexuality cannot be prosecuted

Re: does anyone have any weird facts?
If you have one of those bottled water dispensers (like you get in offices) and you are finding that it's growing algae in the water bottle then simply cover the (next) bottle so that it's not exposed to light......end of algae problem.

It's not the chewing gum but the table that's stuck to it that's the problem.
