All Nite Diner

So I'm here at work SO bored that I typed in "interesting facts" into google...
There's actually some pretty cool stuff here! I thought I would share some with you.

Did you know...
-12 newborns will be given to wrong parents daily?
-A giraffe can go without water longer than a camel?
-A pig's orgasm lasts 30 minutes?
-Actor Tommy Lee Jones and former vice-president Al Gore were freshman roommates at Harvard?
-All of the clocks in the movie "Pulp Fiction" are stuck on 4:20?
-Bats always turn left when exiting a cave?
-It was discovered on a space mission that a frog can throw up. The frog throws up its stomach first, so the stomach is dangling out of its mouth. Then the frog uses its forearms to dig out all of the stomach's contents and then swallows the stomach back down again?
-One of the reasons marijuana is illegal today is because cotton growers in the 1930's lobbied against hemp farmers -- they saw it as competition. It is not as chemically addictive as is nicotine, alcohol, or caffeine?
-The airplane Buddy Holly died in was the "American Pie." (Thus the name of the Don McLean song.) ?
-There are only four words in the English language which end in "-dous": tremendous, horrendous, stupendous, and hazardous?
-There are only thirteen blimps in the world. Nine of them are in the United States?

There were like 330 in the list, but those ones I found particularly interesting. Probably because the others didn't really suprise me, or I had already heard them.

Just thought you should know those as well :)
