MR. SMARTY PANTSKNOWSPaul McCartney’s father was a cotton salesman.Viagra and Miracle-Gro are the same color.According to one biologist, chickens and turkeys have whitemeat because they don’t fly. Birds that fly do not have thesame white meat because they have more blood flow to those areas, resulting in dark meat.The country’s smallest state has the longest official name: State of Rhode Island andProvidence Plantations. The state is considering changing its name to just State ofRhode Island.The term “Ms.” instead of “Miss” or “Mrs.” dates back to a Nov. 10, 1901 article inMassachusett’s Springfield Sunday Republican.The above is information that Mr. Smarty Pants read in a book, a magazine,or the newspaper; heard on the radio; saw on television; or overheard at a party.Got facts?
