I'm bored so, here are a few;
Right handed people live, on average, nine years longer than left handed people do.
A duck's quack doesn't echo, and no one knows why.
Most Americans' car horns beep in the key of F. The telephone dial tone is also in the key of F.

I beg to differ on the duck's qack not echoing. if you punch a duck hard enough, it'll sing madam butterfly and deal cards if you want.

A person will die from total lack of sleep sooner than from starvation. Death will occur about 10 days without sleep, while starvation takes a few weeks.
Canada is an Indian word meaning 'Big Village'.

I hear leftys die younger because of mechanical accidents, not due to any biological reasons.
Being a personal lefty myself, I intend to work somewhere that involves large padded rooms. Maybe I'll go insane for a living.

Here in the UK a comedian by the name of Jimmy Carr said this which totally cracked me up.
They say that buttered toast always falls buttered side down. And cats always land on their feet. So theoretically, if you strapped your toast to the back of a cat (buttered side facing up of course) and threw it out the window it would defy gravity and float.

Alcohol is used in dehydration processes in which a substance is passed through several stages in which alcohol contents in each solution varies in percentage. The final stage is where the substance is submerged in 100% alcohol and by this stage all hydrogen atoms are removed.

*BUMP*
~"Rhythms" is the longest English word without the normal vowels, a, e, i, o, or u.
~"One thousand" contains the letter A, but none of the words from one to nine hundred ninety-nine has an A.
~"Ough" can be pronounced in eight different ways. The following sentence contains them all: "A rough-coated, dough-faced ploughman strode through the streets of Scarborough, coughing and hiccoughing thoughtfully.
~"Four" is the only number whose number of letters in the name equals the number.
~"Forty" is the only number which has its letters in alphabetical order. "One" is the only number with its letters in reverse alphabetical order.
~"Underground" is the only word in the English language that begins and ends with the letters "und."
