17. The ZIP in “ZIP code” means Zoning Improvement Plan.
20. It’s estimated that at any one time around 0.7% of the world’s population is drunk.
45. American Airlines saved $40,000 in 1987 by taking out an olive from First Class salads.
105. China has more English speakers than the United States. (I wonder if that’s ‘Engrish’?)
127. More than 50% of the people in the world have never made or received a telephone call.
141. There are approximately 100 million acts of sexual intercourse each day.
301. The past-tense of the English word “dare” is “durst”.
