Hey everybody. Everybody loves random facts, right? So I've created this topic to discuss about them.
They must be interesting and real (no need to cite sources, but they must be real) and (according to the AG rules) they must have 7 or more words.
Let me begin.
In England a woman named Ceejay Epton (age 22) decided to change her name after her son was born. The reason: she wanted to help the baby to learn the alphabet faster. Then she changed her name to
"Ceejay A Apple B Boat C Cat D Dog E Elephant F Flower G Goat H House I Igloo J Jellyfish K Kite L Lion M Monkey N Nurse O Octopus P Penguin Q Queen R Robot S Sun T Tree U Umbrella V Violin W Whale X X-Ray Y Yo-yo Z Zebra Terryn Feuji-Sharemi"

A japanese man named Yuuki Oshima was arrested when proving his love to a woman: he urinated through that hole that have on the doors that the mailmen use to deliver letters and small packages.
A man named Joe Worthington will use the Facebook from prison: he was planning to rob a bank and posted it on the Facebook. Cops saw the post and arrested him.
A brazilian woman named Elaine Davidson is the person with more piercings in the World. She has 6.005 piercings in the whole body.

In Ohio, nobody can be arrested on Sunday or on the 4th of July.
I'm surprised the small-crime rate isn't lower in Ohio.
But I'm definitely keeping this in mind for the next time I take a trip there.
The last 30 pages of TTICA were c-spam.
30 pages? That's rather generous. I'd say there were at least 100 pages of continuous spam before it got locked. And maybe even that is too generous an estimate.
In many central U.S. states, it is illegal to whale.
Ironically enough, though, there are no marine wildlife preserves in the United States where fishing is illegal.
When a Native American baby is born, the father walks out of the teepee and names the baby after the first thing he sees...I feel sorry for anyone who's dad sees grass growing.
30 pages? That's rather generous. I'd say there were at least 100 pages of continuous spam before it got locked. And maybe even that is too generous an estimate.
The last 30 pages were definitely c-spam. Also, there was some image spam about 200 pages from the end of TTICA.
A judge in Louisville decided a jury went "a little bit too far" in recommending a sentence of 5,005 years for a man who was convicted of five robberies and a kidnapping. The judge reduced the sentence to 1,001 years. ----------------- Wow.
The Romance Formula Was discovered! To find out the calculations are simple: 1)Choose the max age that you want to get married (Ex: 35 years old) and name that unity as 'n' 2)Decide the minimal age that you would start to think about marriage (ex: 23 years old) and name it as '' 3)Make p-n (35-23) and multiply the results by 0.368 (4.4). 4)Then add 4.4 with '' and the result is the perfect age to marry (27.4 years of age in the example).
