The concept of the aircraft gunship originated in 1926 with a .30-caliber Lewis machine gun mounted on the wing of a de Havilland DH-4. It flew “pylon turns” to keep the gun on target.

Ocelots are found in open areas only when it’s cloudy or at night when there is a new moon.

The comedy/tragedy masks actually have names.





Thalia represents the comedy mask and Melpomene represents the tragedy mask.

“Schoolmaster” is an anagram of “the classroom.”

In 1939, in the city of Memphis, Tennessee, consideration was to give a rather humiliating punishment to people who violated the traffic law.
They had to hand over their number plate at the police station and were instead given a similar one with a skull on it, as well as the words "traffic-law violator"
