George W. Bush is our 43rd president, but there actually have only been 42 presidents: Cleveland was elected for two nonconsecutive terms and is counted twice, as our 22nd and 24th president.

Each square inch of human skin consists of 19 million cells, 60 hairs, 90 oil glands, 19 feet of blood vessels, 625 sweat glands, and 19,000 sensory cells.

During his midnight ride on April 18, 1775, Paul Revere did NOT shout "The British are coming." Instead, his call was "The regulars are coming." The regulars were the British Troops
