Re: Fact of the Day.

The woman Jack Nicholson thought was his sister turned out to be his mother.

Born in 1937 with an older sister named June, the future film star was raised in New Jersey by two people whom he believed to be his parents. In 1974, Time magazine ran a feature on him, and during the interview, the journalist informed Nicholson that his parents were actually his grandparents, and his sister June was actually his mother.

By the time he learned this news, both June and his grandmother Ethel had been dead for a number of years. While two men have been named as his real father, the actor himself has largely ignored the issue, at least publicly.

Re: Fact of the Day.

I forgot about this one.........here we go again.

Fact No. 1159
In 1939, Adolf Hitler was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize.

Nobel Peace Prize nominations can't be made by just anyone, although the "right to submit proposals" for the prize is extended to a wide range of people, including government officials, members of international courts, university rectors, previous laureates, and members of the Norwegian Nobel Committee.

Consequently a lot of people could claim to be "nominees," and one is Hitler, who was nominated by Erik Brandt, a member of the Swedish parliament. Brandt withdrew the nomination a few days later.

Re: Fact of the Day.

Fact No. 1161
Toy maker Hasbro bought the rights to Mr. Potato Head for 50 cents.

Hasbro was founded in 1923 as textile remnant company Hassenfield Brothers, and did not start making toys until the 1940s. However, not until 1952 did they have a hit on their hands.

Toy inventor George Lerner first sold the idea of a potato with removable body parts to a cereal company, who failed to see any success with the idea. In 1952, Lerner showed the idea to Hassenfeld Brothers, who bought the rights from the cereal company for 50 cents.

In the first year alone, the toy netted the company over $4 million.

Re: Fact of the Day.

Fact No. 1162
Of the four individuals honored with U.S. federal holidays, only one was born in the USA.

U.S. law commemorates the following men with federal holidays: George Washington (called Presidents Day, the third Monday in February); Christopher Columbus (the second Monday in October); Martin Luther King Jr. (the third Monday in January); and Jesus Christ (December 25).

Of these four, only MLK was born in the USA (Georgia). Jesus Christ was born in the Middle East, Columbus was (probably) born in Italy, and the father of the country was born in 1732 in British America, 44 years before the USA existed.

Wink Re: Fact of the Day.

Dr. Seuss wrote Green Eggs and Ham on a betThe legend goes like this: Following the success of The Cat in the Hat, which Geisel wrote using a set list of a few hundred pre-approved words, Bennett Cerf, publisher at Random House, bet him $50 that he couldn’t write a book using just 50 words. Geisel took the bet and set about writing Green Eggs and Ham, intent on creating a book for very young readers that was both educational and fun to read.

Early drafts of the manuscript show Geisel’s strict attention to this word count: He keeps close watch on the number of words he has used at the bottom of the manuscript’s pages. Published in 1960, Green Eggs and Ham ranks among the top-selling children’s books of all time.
