A spooked turkey can run at speeds up to 20 miles per hour. They can also burst into flight approaching speeds between 50-55 mph in a matter of seconds.

What I found interesting was ....

Turkeys can drown if they look up when it is raining.

On June 26, 1974, the first product with a bar code was scanned at a check-out counter. It was a 10-pack of Wrigley's Juicy Fruit chewing gum.

You don't get to be the Queen unless you know these sort of things. Queen Ruth is very wise.

What announcement is made in both english and a foreign language on every trip of the Walt Disney World Monorail system?

Welcome to Walt Disney World?

Not a clue.  My parents took me to Disney World  when I was 4.  Apparently, the only thing I remember of the entire week-long vacation is the monorail ride.  I only remember that because I was too short to see out the window, and no one would pick me up.  I was mad the whole rail trip!
