The FedEx logo contains and "arrow." Most people don't notice it until somebody tells them it's there. Can you spot it?

Sea cucumbers extract oxygen from water in a pair of 'respiratory trees' that branch off the cloaca just inside the anus, so that they 'breathe' by drawing water in through the anus and then expelling it.

Sea Cucumbers are one of the only animals to practice evisceration as a self-defense method. This means if one feels threatened by hungry fishies the kooky cuke basically throws its guts up at the fish. Luckily, their guts grow back eventually.

So, what you're saying is that the sea cucumber is constantly getting a salt-water colonic?

Iron Maiden's album Number of the Beast was panned by social conservatives, especially in the United States, where the band were accused of being Satanists. Steve Harris states that "it was mad. They completely got the wrong end of the stick. The obviously hadn't read the lyrics. They just wanted to believe all that rubbish about us being Satanists."

The Russian word "grozny" is mistranslated as "terrible" in the name Ivan the Terrible.  A better translation is "awesome" or "dread", denoting majesty.  

But then: "Ivan the Awesome" just does not have the same punch to it.

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.

    Lesson Learned:
