One of the longest English words that can be typed using the top row of
a typewriter (allowing multiple uses of letters) is 'typewriter.'

A pig's orgasm lasts for 30 minutes. (So this is where the Nobuta Power comes from!)

The real name of the "I've fallen and I can't get up" lady is Edith

If you toss a penny 10000 times, it will not be heads 5000 times, but

No, he was not.
His mother, Jennie Jerome, American born and a famous beauty was a political mover and shaker as well as huge favorite of the Prince of Wales. She was married to Randolph Churchill who later became Prime Minister and who died in his late 40's of syphilis.
She gave birth to Winston in a guest room at his parents, The Duke and Duchess of Marlborough's estate. They claimed he was premature as he was born 7 and a half months after the wedding. For a preemie he was rather robust at over 8 pounds,

You can read the book "Jennie" Volume one for more info.
She was fascinating!!
