I can't think of any right now but my wife has a book called
"Everything you don't want to know about fast food"
it tells of some very interesting things fast food companies do; one thing I remember was to place the restaurant within walking distance of schools and using satelite pictures to evaluate places and areas of cities where they want to place restaurants. And we wonder why we are getting big.

I don't think that is true butch.
But, here is a fun fact for you... The earth weighs 131,340,000,000,000,000,000,000,000#.
Here is another fun fact... The Earth has 639,984,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 kilograms of force, only slightly less powerful than a roundhouse kick from Chuck Norris.

Ok I just thought of one....
Here in Florida the age of consent is 16
The minimum age to marry someone is .... thats right there is no minimum age. As long as your parents say it ok to marry under 16 you can, but no hankey pankey.....
Well thats more in the line of a dumb law Vs. fun fact
