There was going to be a sequel to the Disney animated film "Snow White", but the studio decided against making it. It was storyboarded, but never advanced to the production stage.

According to the American Cancer Society, 41% of Americans will develop cancer within the course of their lifetime, and about half will die from it. One can only wish that those numbers eventually drop to 0.

The fictional town of Bikini Bottom is based off an island called Bikini Atoll, which is a nuclear testing site, which is why all the characters in Spongebob Squarepants are of questionable sanity.

In Switzerland, it is illegal to own only one guinea pig. Why? They've been known to die of loneliness, which is one of the saddest things I have ever heard [my own just died in her sleep and had a heart attack while walking to her food bowl to get a snack respectively].

8 track tape cartridges were first introduced in cars in 1964 and were the first popular portable music format. You can listen to music in your car without the use of a radio!  |

Each warrior name suffix has a meaning which is usually why specific suffixes are given to a cat. Because of this, names like Cloudcloud, Featherfeather, Willowwillow, Breezebreeze are possible. Now, you already knew this, but did you know that their are 69 possible variants of 'double names'? Did you know that I may be the first person to post that fact because I just counted the overlap prefix and suffixes on the warriors wiki by going through the names section since I couldn't find it anywhere else?

Speaking of the Warriors books, there have been 3 cats named Birchstar, 2 named Ashfur, and I believe 4 named Robinwing over the course of the entire series this far.

There's a theory that all the Pixar movies are interconnected, and each new one that comes out just seems to be backing up said theory more and more..

Lightning McQueen has two backstories. In one, "The Rookie", he is known as "Bulldozer" McQueen before he makes his big break.

HOLY that is awesome!
Before 8 track stereos were put in new cars, there were record players that were installed in automobiles as early as 1955 by Columbia Records. These record players are able to play standard 45 rpm records. However, due to high maintenance costs and faulty parts, the format was discontinued in 1961, about three years before the 8 track stereo came into existence. Interestingly, contrast to popular belief, these car record players do not skip the record when playing even though the car itself is moving. Finding a good working record player can cost more than an entire car. The price can range from $1,000 to $2500 for a good working one and less for a broken one.
If you want to stand out of the crowd, get one! ^^

Wild parrots actually name their children. Each baby is called by its parents using a specific sound, and that specific sound sticks for life.

The Icelandic folklore has 13 figures (best translation would be "Santa Claus" but they are not meant to be friendly) that come on the last thirteen nights before Christmas Eve and a christmas cat named "Jólakötturinn" that eats lazy people who haven't finished their work until Christmas Eve.
