Here are some random facts for you.
1. Missy Elliott wrote and performed on Raven-Symoné‘s 1993 debut rap song, “That’s What Little Girls Are Made Of”. But she was left off the music video, for not being physically attractive enough. (Imagine! Not “fitting the image” to appear in a seven-year-old’s music video. Joke’s on those execs.)
2. There’s a fake McDonald’s in City of Industry, in Southern California, that’s just used for filming. Most of the McDonald’s ads you’ve seen were shot in that building.
3. The surface area of the five Great Lakes combined is roughly the same size as the entire United Kingdom.
4. The best way to avoid going bald is castration. As long as you have your testes removed BEFORE you start going bald, you won’t lose your hair. If you get them removed after you start losing hair, you won’t grow back what you lost.
5. In the 1700s and 1800s, squirrels were popular pets.
