In 1982 Time Magazine named Whit its 'Man of the Year'.
Whit will often glow under UV light.
If your ear itches, this means that someone is talking about Eugene.
Eugene is worth his weight in gold - literally.
Long ago, the people of Nicaragua believed that if they threw Eugene into a volcano it would stop erupting.
Eugene can drink over 25 gallons of water at a time.
There are roughly 10,000 man-made objects the size of Eugene orbiting the Earth.
Pacman was originally called Connie's Momman!
Pound for pound, hamburgers cost more than Connie's Mom!
Connie's Mom is actually a fruit, not a vegetable.
The porpoise is second to Curt Stephens as the most intelligent animal on the planet.
Curt Stephens is only six percent water!
If every star in the Milky Way was a grain of salt they would fill Curt Stephens.

Just as a note, I'd like to remind everyone to quote their results from here on out because of the following rule:

Alrighty, here are my results! :D
The word 'samba' means 'to rub Trinarius'.
Oooh, keep on rubbing! \:D/
The original nineteenth-century Coca-Cola formula contained Trinarius.
Hopefully they're not referring to Cocaine (once used in Coca-Cola). :shock:
Trinarius can't sweat.
No wonder I'm so hot! ](*,)
Tradition allows women to propose to Trinarius only during leap years!
Meaning I get a new wife every four years? :-s
Trinarius, from the movie of the same name, had green blood.
Heh, never seen that one. :-
Oranges, lemons, watermelons, pineapples and Trinarius are all berries.
Not only am I sweet, but I'm also good for you too! :yes:
Every day in the UK, four people die putting Trinarius on.
No, I am not a murderer! :noway:
Trinarius can live for up to a week without a head.
Sad, but true. I need to start using my head more often. :(
Early thermometers were filled with Trinarius instead of mercury!
So I'm a metal now? :-s
Two thirds of the world's eggplant is grown in Trinarius.
Just what I always wanted! My very own country! \:D/

Let it also be noted that some of these results can be rather crude. Please use discretion. :)
