1) BEN FRANKLIN threatened to not sign the Declaration of Independence when he insisted the National Bird be the Turkey but was out-voted .

2) EINSTEINS THEORY OF RELATIVITY was the result of him asking himself this question: If you were traveling at the speed of light, next to a beam of light, what would it look like?

3) The absence of a reference to God was of the highest priority when The National Anthem & The Pledge of Allegience were chosen. God Bless Am.(favored by many)

was not even considered due to separation of church and state. The original Pledge did not contain the phrase “under God”. That was added during the Eisenhouer Presidency

4) The song “Bye, Bye Miss American Pie” is a tribute to Buddy Holley. The February day Holley died in a plane crash was the “day the music died” The name of his plane was “The Miss American Pie” The author, a newspaper delivery boy as a teen, learned of the crash from headlines. “I can’t remember if I cried when I read about his widowed bride but somehting touched me deep inside the day the music died.” Thus,”Feb. made me shiver, with every paper I delivered. Bad news on the door step. I couldn’t take one more step. The local teen party/meeting place was a levee on the river. The devistated group was gathered, drowning their sorrows when he got there. “And good old boys were drinking whiskey and rye singing this’ll be the day that I die”

So Bye,Bye Miss American Pie”

What sort of trivia, and what sort of details?

I can’t really give you an exact answer unless

you’re much more specific.

Try revising your question when Yahoo! sends

you a notice that will say: “You might want to

extend your question.”

Here’s one–name a really long medical term. Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis. When I learned this as a kid, I was told it was the longest word in the world. {Apparently, Answers won’t print the entire word. After ‘silico’ it continues “volcanoconiosis”.}
