William Howard Taft struggled all his adult life with a weight problem. "Big Bill" was over 300 pounds and 6'2".
He got stuck in the White House bathtub and had to have an oversized version brought in for his use.
He had a 7' long 41" wide tub installed that could accommodate 4 normal-sized men.

My high school was William Howard Taft High.

In alternative medicine, the term urine therapy (also urotherapy, urinotherapy or uropathy) refers to various applications of human urine for medicinal or cosmetic purposes, including drinking of one's own urine and massaging one's skin with one's own urine.

In one ancient Indian tradition, urine therapy is called amaroli. There is no conclusive scientific evidence of medical benefit from drinking urine, with little or no studies having been published in the Lancet or other peer reviewed medical journal. However, the main chemical component of urine, urea, has many well known commercial and medical uses.

In soccer, what does it mean to be off sides?
My daughter came up with that one.

In outdoor soccer, or outdoor football as it is known in most of the world, an offside foul is called when an offensive player, or attacking player, is passed the ball and there are not at least two opponents between him or her and the goal line. Usually, these are the goalkeeper and one other defender, but not necessarily. The penalty for an offside foul is that the other team is given possession of the ball.

The earliest barbecue may have been uncovered by University of Haifa researchers, who say that more than 200,000 years ago people living in the Misliya Cave in Mount Carmel, Israel brought home and barbecued the choicest cuts from the large mammals they hunted.

[Wallyz]

I was looking for the cs. 20,000 BC pits in Western mexico, but the Haifa pits seem to have them beat by 200,000 years, so Karol wins.
