The first ever taxidermied walrus ended up much bigger than the walrus had been in life. 

The taxidermist had never actually seen a walrus prior to this and had over stuff the body to smooth out the wrinkles.

All hosts of the TONIGHT show have the first initial of 'J'.
Jack Parr, Johnny Carson, Jay Leno, and Jimmy Fallon.

In Italy, they're not afraid of Friday the 13th.  The day they feel is unlucky is actually Friday the 17th. 

Samhainophobia is the medical term for the fear of Halloween.  I don't know if there's a movie with that title, but there needs to be. 

The world record for largest pumpkin even grown was set only a few years ago in German in October 2016.  The pumpkin weighed 2,624.6 lbs.

Joan Rivers was set up to be the next Tonight Show host. But she p**sed Johnny off.
And she was a "j' too.

Stocking up for next Easter, Trevor?
Here comes Trevor Cottontail
Hopping down the underwear trail
Brining loads of underwear to boys and girls who have been good all year.

So, boys and girls
Unless you wanted a broken window
Leave your window open
Because Trevor Cottontail will toss your underwear
Thru the window whether it's open or closed

Hippity! Hoppity!
See him on his way.

A loss need not be a loss

Dolly Parton
once entered a Dolly Parton Look-a-Like Drag contest and loss to a man in drag who looked more like Dolly Parton than the real Dolly Parton. She is not the only one to enter a look-a-like contest and lose.

Charles Chaplin
once entered a Tramp Look-a-like Contest and came in 3rd to two men who looked more like Charles as a Tramp than the real Chaplin.

Ann-Margaret
when she was on Ted Mack's Amateur Hour came in 2nd, losing to a man who played a tune by blowing on a leaf.

Dennis Miller and Sinbad
by the luck of the draw competed against each other in the comedy category on Star Search. Both receiving a perfect 4.0 score from the judges. So the decision was turned over to the audience to pick the winner, and again they tied. Each receiving the same number of votes. So, they both came back the next week, and again both received a perfect 4.0 score from the judges. Again, it was up to the audience to pick the winner, and Dennis Miller lost, Sinbad receiving 1 more vote than Dennis Miller.

This is old, dating back to the time of ancient Greece. When, who is considered one of the great ancient Greek dramatists entered a drama contest with what is now considered a classic ancient Greek drama and lost. What was the winning entry? We do not know as no known example of it still exists.

    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:
    • Osmosis: os·mo·sis (oz-mo'sis, os-) n., 1. When a bird eats something.
