# There are more chickens than people in the world
# Almonds are a member of the peach family
# There are only four words in the English language which end in “dous”: tremendous, horrendous, stupendous, and hazardous.
# Al Capone’s card said he was a used furniture dealer
# An ostrich’s eye is bigger than its brain.
# A goldfish has a memory span of three seconds
# A dime has 118 ridges around the edge
# The name for OZ in the “Wizard of OZ” was thought up when the creator, Frank Baum, looked at his filing cabinet and saw A-N, and O-Z, hence “OZ”
