-A Cat has 32 muscles in each ear.
-If you lined up the population of China in a row, It would never end because of the rate of reproduction.

Natural gas is odourless. They add a chemical called mercaptan to the gas in order to give it an odour so it can be detected in the event of gas leaks. Ross Geller tried to use that as a pick-up line with a pizza-delivery woman on the show "Friends". I have a bottle of mercaptan in my laboratory at work. (Seriously!) Pray that I do not drop it.
