Well you have nothing else to impress people with..
Other fun facts include:
The Book that is the most purchased is the Bible... the Book that shoplifted more than any other book is also The Bible.
The word "pornography" comes from the Greek meaning the "writings of prostitutes."
The term 'Life Begins at 40' originated from the myth told of Venus, the goddess of fire. Venus had many servants who, once they reached the age of 40, were dismissed from their services.
Beds were much much shorter in medeival times. So short in fact that people would have to sit-up in bed, as opposed to laying down flat. This was because if Death was to pass your window, he would think that because you were sitting up in bed, you were not yet asleep.. so he could not claim you.
