he Electric Chair was not invented by a Dentist. It was invented by Thomas Edison but he sold the patent to a Dentist so the Dentist could start a company that made electric chairs.
The Dentist made the first electric chairs with a wooden foot rest so the first people killed in it were literally cooked to death. The Dentist didn't know that the chair had to be grounded so the current would pass through the body and kill the person through electrocution.
Saudi Arabia does have rivers, they just dry up during the dry season.
No one thought turkeys came from turkey. Turkey's are indigenous to North America. It was given the name Turkey because it resembled the Guinea Fowl of Africa, not Turkey. Another name for the male Guinea Fowl was the Turkeycock. The male of the Guinea Fowl and the male North American Turkey made the same mating display with their tails. Hence the choice of the name for the new bird.
