That's like the Toronto Maple Leafs (Canada) hockey team. Everyone but hose Torontoians know that the plural of Leaf is Leaves.

In the weeks before he walked on the moon that Neil Armstrong spent hours and hours trying to come up with something memorable to say when he took his first step on the moon. And then when he got there and did it, he got it wrong? And that is why there is a pause in the now famous sentence. "That's one small step for man, one . . . . . . . giant leap for mankind".

What he planned on saying was "That's one small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind".

That the British 6 pounder Anti Tank gun (used by the US as the M1 57mm ) when using APDS Ammunition had a greater ability to penetrate armour than the Kwk 36 88mm gun as fitted to the Tiger 1 (The 88 was however a lot more accurate at longer ranges)?

Well, thank goodness for that. I would hate to think what they would have looked like if their uniforms were designed by Victoria's Secret :pinch: .

While you have 10 toes (assuming you are not polydactyly), you only have 8 fingers :unsure: ?

Most people get that one wrong if you ask them.

Did you know that during Napoleons attack on Russia it was that cold with the perma frost on the ground that the cannonballs which were placed on brass racks so they could be stacked into pyramids would start to freeze . Because the rack was brass it would contract but the solid iron cannonballs of course would not contract , this would cause the cannon ball pyramids to fall over . The brass rack was called a monkey and when it is that cold it would freeze the balls off a brass monkey , then you better believe it is cold !

If you drop a cat it will land on its feet.
If you drop buttered toast it will land butter side down.
If you strap buttered toast to a cats back will it hover???
