I've got 2 of them:

Did you know that a skunk can only shoot it's "essence" for about 2 yards, but it can be smelled up to 2-1/2 miles away?

Did you know that if you kick one of the stamp machines at the post office (at least the ones in my town) when they don't give you stamps, that a siren like a police car has, emits from the machine? :(

I've got one that's actually useful:

Did you know that some gas pumps, like at Cosco and Sam's Club, will actually suction gas back up the hose after it clicks off, so if you top it off at some pumps, you're paying for gas that's going out of your tank.

Dang. That's the biggest ripoff in the history of the world.

Did you konw taht aodcrcnig to a rcenet sudty at Crbigdame Uvniretsiy, the bairn deos not raed ltetrs in a wrod in odrer? The biarn raeds olny the fsirt and lsat ltretes of a wrod, and the lretets are seen as a wlhoe. So, it denso't mteatr how you slepl a wrod, as lnog as the fsrit and lsat lterts are in the rhigt peclas. Wried, huh.

P.S. Don't think it was easy typing that.

Did you know that milk chocolate was invented by Daniel Peter, who sold the concept to his neighbour Henri Nestlé.

Did you know that three quarters of fish caught are eaten - the rest is used to make things such as glue, soap, margarine and fertilizer.

Did you know, to make one kilo of honey bees, you have to visit 4 million flowers, traveling a distance equal to 4 times around the earth.

Did you know that, botanically speaking, the banana is a herb and the tomato is a fruit.

Did you know that bananas consistently are the number one compliant of grocery shoppers. Most people complain when bananas are overripe or even freckled. The fact is that spotted bananas are sweeter, with a sugar content of more than 20%, compared with 3% in a green banana.

Did you know that the scientific term for the common tomato is lycopersicon or lycopersicum, which means "wolf peach."

That's all I got........for now :D
